Tony played a key role in establishing business confidence that procurement would deliver substantial benefits to Comet, and has personally delivered significant cost savings through supplier rationalisation, specification and service optimisation, process improvement and the delivery of major strategic negotiations. He has also helped the team to significantly improve the working capital position of the business by extending payment terms, and introduced “cost out” agendas with suppliers through the introduction of robust supplier relationship management within his spend categories. You can tell from this recommendation that I highly rate Tony. I very much hope that we will work together again and wish him every success in the future. The only negative is his taste in football teams but nobody is perfect.", "Tony's skills in negotiation and supplier relationships led to multi-millions pound savings for Comet. Tony is one of the few negotiators that I have met who have a balanced view and understand that to have a long term relationship is the best result for the supplier and customer. Tony has gained a fantastic reputation with the Senior team at Comet and suppliers alike, I look forward to working with Tony again in the future.", and "Tony is an extremely good Manager. He gave me the opportunity to manage a number of successful projects which built my knowledge and understanding of eCommerce. He approaches every project logically and methodically. He has a world of experience managing projects and also has the ability to look at all sides of the situation before invariably settling on the right decision. I'd definitely work with Tony again if I could and would recommend him to any future employer."
