Summary

I am an organised supply chain professional with over 9 years' experience working in the automotive, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. I am enthusiastic about my work and possess a result driven ethos that focuses on over-delivering for customers and stakeholders. I have a proven track record in exceeding personal objectives, whilst my demonstrable experience managing small teams allows me to lead, motivate and support direct reports in eclipsing collective targets. Highly qualified in Lean and Six Sigma with green belt experience, I am able to regularly exercise these skills in conjunction with other lateral thinking methodologies to drive process improvement activities and encourage colleagues to think differently about day-to-day obstacles and challenges.
