My accountabilities include allocating budget resources, controlling operational cost, monitoring and motivating staff (up to 15), managing client projects, ensuring good customer service, engaging with vendors, and overseeing business operations (inclusive of bookkeeping, procurement, and inventory control). My entrepreneurial spirit and vision in directing business functions have assisted Total Lining Systems in maintaining relationships with its clients, generating new business, increasing staff productivity, ensuring sustainability, and meeting its overall business objectives. Successes included capturing substantial savings for the business through an innovative solution that mitigated on-site delays for a major client project. I also instituted new systems that streamlined mission-critical bookkeeping, financial reporting, and statutory reporting functions, and in turn, reduced cycle time by at least 20% Show less

In this role, I was challenged to put together a turnaround plan focused on improving the performance of three neglected South stores (Cronulla, Bondi, Wollongong).

Under the restructuring strategy, I rehired new teams with relevant skills and positive attitude, initiated new procedures, and executed visual merchandising techniques that increased footfall traffic and conversion rates. Through this approach, I realised sales growth of 300% in one of the three underperforming stores just within the first few months in the role. In addition to the three South stores, I was also accountable for all commercial, operational and human resources aspects of two other locations in Manly and Narrabeen. This included overseeing both front-end (sales, customer service, visual merchandising) and back-end (accounting, humane resources, inventory, ordering) business operations across all five stores concurrently. I analysed store-specific P&L statements and sales figures, created budgets per department, and coordinated prompt ordering and distribution of merchandise to all locations to sustain sufficient inventory levels. As a result, all five stores placed in the Top 10 stores Australia wide in terms of sales performance, with three stores making it to the Top 5. Show less
