More than 20 years as a senior Supply Chain and Operations leader driving strategic change, operational efficiencies and profitability improvement. I have a "relentless focus on continuous improvement of the Supply Chain service performance and cost structure through process and people enhancements " (see Recommendations ).At the same time I significantly reduced cost to serve via renegotiating logistics contracts and 3PL management. Managed supply chain cost centres ranging from $32 million to $50 million.

My responsibilities have ranged from demand management and product development through to manufacturing,logistics and customer service.I have been directly involved in developing and delivering two cultural change programmes as well as implementing three Lean programmes.
