James Gaskin Email and Phone Number

I am an experienced Lead Category Manager in the Purchasing industry. Skilled in Business Partnering, Relationship Management and Supplier Development with a proven track record of delivering savings in complex, multi-million pound contracts within high profile environments. Strong supply chain professional with an MSC in Procurement and Supply Chain, MCIPS full membership, Institute of Asset Management Diploma, Cambridge University Sustainable Business Management course, Level One Vibrational Analysis qualification.I have in-depth experience in deriving value from leveraging lifecycle management to improve performance of assets from cradle-to-grave. I passionately believe that KPI's drive behaviour, and that the wrong KPI's drive the wrong behaviour; I am skilled at linking KPI's to Business Strategy to ensure that Procurement and Asset Performance enhances true value to an organisation. I achieve this by breaking down barriers, working across silo's to ensure that the entire team understands and aligns to the required Company goals.
