My primary focus is to manage the implementation of new systems and processes inline with our corporate strategy. A worldwide transformation of our ERP systems currently fill my days. It is a highly satisfying role having to use my skills and experience to balance a wide range of stakeholder interests, criteria, cultures and requirements.I analyse systems and business processes, and propose, design and implement useful solutions which bring about positive, sensible changes. Effective communication is key, not only within our team, but especially across borders. Being interested in cultures, understanding what each values and how they make decisions, helps me to build close working relationships. This is possibly the most valuable skill of mine, helping me to be successful in this role. I take great pleasure in identifying areas in business where a process could be improved with technology and then designing a solution, implementing it and seeing the results. This requires a holistic approach with a balance of technical, managerial, business and interpersonal skills and knowledge, something I do well and am proud of.It is a position I thoroughly enjoy. It gives me great satisfaction to combine my knowledge with personal ambition, and to be part of a team with a modern technological vision and excellent resources to make a significant, positive difference to an international business.

My ability to effectively communicate complex ideas and solutions to a variety of audiences not completely familiar with IT related topics is a skill which my international peers regularly highlight and compliment. During my time at JURA UK I managed the successful implementation of two different ERP systems, a CRM solution, complete IT infrastructure renewal and a fully integrated electronic document management system. I also used technology to improve customer service through innovative solutions such as empowering our customers and customer service team with an intuitive multimedia interaction tool.My successful campaigning to embrace customer engagement through social media and offering more options through ecommerce also had a positive impact on brand awareness and sales. I was instrumental in making JURA UK's digital vision a reality by designing and implementing solutions to drive us there. JURA UK's turnover has increased by more than 600% during my time which demanded maximum efficiency and productivity from our IT systems. JURA's head office is in Switzerland. During my time in the UK I had a close working relationship with my Swiss colleagues and participated in successfully delivering international projects. I overcome the unique challenges this brings by making an effort to understand and appreciate the different perspectives, constraints and requirements, and always try to maintain a healthy and objective view of the different stakeholders.

To efficiently manage remote distribution, I collaborated with my brother to develop an online interface, enabling our office and warehouse teams to oversee imports, UK distribution, and exports remotely. What makes this significant is that this was during a time when online logistics management services were not common yet.I also integrated this system with our accounting platform to streamline operations. With a small team of five, we prioritized flexibility and teamwork to provide excellent after-sales customer service. I took great pride in the accomplishments of our department and our good reputation. Show less
