The COVID-19 pandemic unfortunately resulted in the temporary cessation of worldwide cruise ship operations from 2020 until mid-2021, significantly impacting the industry.Despite these challenges, I successfully secured new turnover with a 5* cruise line, a notable achievement by securing H&W's inaugural cruise ship contracts for three vessels operated by Viking Cruise Lines. Moreover, I managed revitalized and restored damaged relationships inherited from the former H&W Heavy Industries, fostering renewed trust and collaboration with clients across the UK, Republic of Ireland, Europe, and the USA.
