Enabling and supporting organisations find better ways of doing things is what I do best. Over the past 30 years I have worked for international business spanning industry sectors such as IT, hospitality utilities, FM, manufacturing, and distribution. I specialise in bringing innovative new products to market, to grow, scale, and transform operations to produce bigger financial gains, build stronger teams, and futureproof operations.Never satisfied with the status quo, I thrive in transformation environments. I possess a keen interest in next generation technologies that are disrupting and transforming manufacturing, distribution, and transport, as we know them. This includes artificial intelligence, robotics, and the impact of IoT - the Internet of Things.Technology is just one piece of the puzzle. Transformational change and continuous improvement are best achieved through building and empowering teams to achieve stretch targets and improve the customer experience. As we navigate a global skills shortage and post-pandemic priority shifts, it’s imperative to secure and retain the right talent. I am skilled and experienced in relationship building, having transformed my division from a declining business with poor staff morale into a profitable entity, with a united workforce.I am very attuned to the fact that manufacturing and other industries face a threat much bigger than technology and personnel. According to the World Economic Forum, up to 18% of the worldwide economy’s GDP could be eliminated if global temperatures rise by 3.2°C before 2050, along with countless other health and environmental catastrophes. To avoid this fate, businesses need to act sooner rather than later, and help reverse the damage already done and prevent further harm. Sustainability is a major area of focus for me, and one that I champion in the work that I do. I’m keen to expand my network with like-minded people.
