Over the years have held numerous management positions including Customer Services Management, Logistics Management, Production Management, Purchasing Management and Supply Chain Management, all taking place in a global manufacturing environment. I have developed and managed customer and supplier relationships across many global business cultures, specifically personally developing key relationships in the Netherlands, Spain, Germany, Greece, Japan and India. I enjoy business travel and the opportunity to work on an international basis. My career development gives me a solid foundation in running a business and I excel at connecting business processes, people and teams. I am an effective communicator who can influence on all levels, building key relationships with colleagues, staff and business partners. I have a track record of leading teams to deliver optimum business via personal support, mentoring and coaching. I have also managed in the context of ISO 9001 accredited businesses giving quality management a key personal focus. I am highly self-motivated and have a high standard of personal excellence. In the past 10 years I have been part of the Senior Leadership Team and been involved in planning business strategy. My wide business experience enables me to view the needs of the business from a number of strategic angles and to link the needs of different business functions and align them to the same business strategy.
