Background

About Tom Birrane

I’m a recruiter. But not the typical stereotype sending cvs to companies without context or a generic role I think you're perfect for asking if you're "open to a chat." I work with senior leaders across Supply Chain, Operations, Procurement, and Digital, mainly when things are moving fast, breaking, or changing. Interim or permanent, getting the right capability in quickly. Whether it’s urgent transformation, plugging a leadership gap, shifting gears after a strategy reset or a specific project, I bring the people who make it happen. Majority of my work is across Consumer, Retail, and Manufacturing but my expertise lies within the same skill sets. You won’t get fluff. No “strategic partner” waffle. Just straight-talking, real conversations that lead to great outcomes. Who I usually work with: CEOs, COOs, MDs CSCOs, CPOs, Chief Transformation Officers Supply Chain Directors, Ops Directors, Transformation Directors What they’re often tackling: Supply chain overhauls and efficiency Cost-cutting and procurement optimisation Capability gaps during change programmes Urgent interim leadership I do this through Lammond Associates, a business built on results, relationships, and where urgency meets actual delivery. Let’s talk when the pressure’s on, time's not on your side and the CVs aren’t cutting it.
