I provide key functional leadership, and have steered the divisional sales strategy and contributed to the company’s strategic direction to deliver accelerated results.HIGHLIGHTS:• Headed an annual growth in sales of 300%+ in four years, driving market share and securing market leading position in the region.• Grew client portfolio average monthly sales by over 6-fold in just two years by rebuilding strong relationships and consistently executing on (and exceeding) service agreements and expectations.• Played an integral part in structuring a new customised product transport system which reduced service warranty callouts by 91.6%, improved order to install lead time by three days, manual handling touchpoints (and OH&S risk) from nine to three, and loading time down from one hour down to just three minutes. SUMMARY: Managing staff, contractors, customers, contracts and financials, I hit the ground running to lead a departmental restructure which aligned all divisional activities toward strategic business objectives, and a culture which has grown the team’s performance and reputation with clients and within the industry.

During my time at Andel, I realised strong results despite challenging economic conditions, partnered with senior management to safeguard areas of financial vulnerability, and identified new revenue channels to drive sales and profitability—achieving set objectives six months ahead of schedule.HIGHLIGHTS:• Leveraged cost reductions and new revenue streams to drive vertical supply chain integration by creating a retail division, and brought the shopfront concept from business proposal to reality ahead of schedule.• Won the company’s largest-ever single contract to date via tender.

Overall accountability for the Andel Group including commercial projects, maintenance, HR and OH&S. Financial accountability included budgeting, cashflow and profitability monitoring and reporting as well as asset management and identification of new income streams.

At Pentach, I was appointed to drive production and quality improvement results along the supply chain based from the processing and packaging plant in WA to the importer in Asia to support expansion efforts in the international export market. Accountability centred on quality management to guarantee the best-finished quality of the export product, and product loss and downtime minimisation to generate strong results.HIGHLIGHTS:• Broke the monthly production record, achieving the business’ highest output record in just the fourth month with the company. This record still stands today as the highest monthly production output in the company’s 21-year history.• Instituted multi-pronged product quality improvements, resulting in higher quality and better-presented product arriving at the overseas destination, and reduced overall product loss and zero packaging production downtime.• Drove down COGS and implemented a technological solution which automatically calibrated and adjusted optimised product input quantities to ensure shipping containers were no longer exported critically under-weight.

Identifying and capitalising on a gap in the existing local market, I established and grew this project-winning company from a self-employing entity to employing 5 staff and 5 contract firms, and turning over $1M by our second year of operation.
