Looking for a proven, skilled, well-rounded and mature leader with a steady pair of hands, to develop your team so that they can implement these strategies over and over again, in any area of your business? A leader who’s not afraid to bring maverick - perhaps even brutal or cavalier - ideas to the table, whilst retaining a sensible and mature approach, well grounded in proven strategies, consistency and fairness?We favour quick, simple interventions, with powerful and long-lasting results. No weighty reports that get stuffed in a drawer. Much better to train up key staff there and then, so that they can replicate the process in all areas of your business.I work with your leadership team in an enthusiastic and contagious ‘make it happen’ style, borne from a lean manufacturing environment - been there - done it - and have the scars and workwear to prove it!I have experience of both:* managed high growth in precision electromechanical engineering - tripling turnover in 6 years* and exponential growth - holding the tiger’s tail from Minimum Viable Product for the automotive market to Off Tools Off Process in 40 months and first production year turnover of £35MI recommend managed growth to my clients unless they have very deep pockets and a ready source of staff.While in the automotive sector I ran a Tier 1 where the shop floor hadn't had much attention paid to it since the 80s. With a lot of help from UniPart and the total involvement of the shop floor and management teams, we transformed a grot hole into a shop window, and reaped 10% efficiency savings and 15% floor area savings in a 15 month period, by introducing cellular manufacturing, Kanban as appropriate, and a Continuous Improvement function.I have been an agent of change for growth and efficiency in every business I've been in.Specialities: Business growth, transformation, technology, manufacturing, programme management
