Profile bio

About Gerard Murray

I’m a hard-working individual with a very varied skill set. I have a good understanding of manufacturing processes within a factory as well as good understanding of the Supply Chain process. I have spent a lot of time working in a food manufacturing environment and have gained a lot of knowledge of the standards and processes needed within this environment. As I also have a background in accounts I understand how these processes feed into the financial accounts of a business such as costings and stock valuations.Since the Covid outbreak I have been solely responsible for setting up and implementing the complete Supply Chain processes in to two newly acquired Food Production Facilities. This involved setting up the goods in team and stores environment, implementing and training out the entire production planning process, from ordering materials and creating production plans to the production planning teams as well as setting up the despatch team and ensuring that stocks were recorded and despatched correctly based on orders from customers. I was able to do this due to the experience and knowledge I have worked hard to gain as well as use my own initiative to solve any problems that may have arisen. I am proud of the work I have done and believe that this really shows what I can achieve, especially under the difficult circumstances of the Covid outbreak.I can work as part of a successful team, work on my own initiative as well supervise members of staff including managing my own and their workloads. I have excellent IT skills and have experience with lots of systems such as Sage 200, including various add-ons such as Sicon and bespoke software and Excel to a very high standard. I have a proven track record of being able to take on different roles and quickly learn how to be successful in the role. I have introduced various new processes and enjoy the challenge of being able to improve processes to improve efficiency and make financial savings. These new processes have not only saved time due to the increased efficiency across multiple sites but there is also an ongoing cost saving due to historical changes and increased accuracy going forward. I would be an asset to any employer and can provide countless references to back this up.

Listed skills include Finance, Accounting, Team Leadership, Operating Budgets, and 8 others.
