Francisco Bautista Email and Phone Number

I am a highly experienced business leader with over 20 years' experience I delivered significant results for the global consulting firm I work for. Known for being analytical and an excellent problem solver I have led teams working with very complex client issues and delivered effective and innovative solutions. My expertise lies in the area of manufacturing generally but with specific focus on the fast-growing automotive sector in LATAM alongside aerospace and transportation industries. A leader in the field of Manufacturing 4.0, I support teams to deliver process improvement, accelerated growth, business development, financial planning model, investment planning, better procurement and modernising supply chain. As a lead in business development and strategist for my company I have won new business, maintained high quality relationships with C level executives from clients and managed through some crises to ensure projects were delivered well. I believe I have high level negotiation skills and an effective style of communicating and influencing. My work involves creating strategy, planning in detail and supporting the execution of those plans. I understand the nuances of the local LATAM market, the regulatory requirements of the larger Americas markets and how to help clients find their way through to successful outcomes. Highly adaptable to uncertainty, have been asked to lead special projects to develop new services where we didn’t have the knowledge or experience. Succeeded implementing a team to take on the challenge when we encountered problems that were not even foreseeable. With many failures and course corrections the team always delivered. My international MBA qualification has given me a firm knowledge base and added to this, my in-market and business experience makes me an effective and successful leader. I have helped businesses to set up from scratch, achieve turn rounds and drive significant growth in the very competitive and capital-intensive sectors I work in.
