I was employed in an extremely versatile role within the company responsible for a number of key business critical customers. My primary role was the introduction of new products ensuring compliance to specification, quality, cost and lead-time.Key to this, I transferred products from the “New Product Introduction Centre” based in Southampton to one of its satellite manufacturing bases in the UK & Europe. The last 2 years of this employment was spent acting as a trouble shooter for failing projects. I implemented process and procedural changes to ensure sustainability & continuity before control was handed back to the original site owners.
