Summary:
My career has been focused on running SME's as MD with a bias towards Finance, Operations, and Project work. I am at heart a problem solver and relationship builder rather than a salesman or a technical expert. For 20 years, the project and operational planning work I did was under the additional pressure of fulfilling the demands of the highest animal welfare standards. Risking prosecution by the RSPCA for the slightest oversight tends to focus the mind on operational excellence! Together with my MBA, this background has given given me the skill set to develop my current business. My current role involves meeting MDs & FDs who are interested in exploring whether we can work together in a mutually beneficial way. This discussion is facilitated through the presentation of a tailored "Cost Reduction and Control" proposal, at no cost or obligation. These cost reductions are delivered through the application of our unrivalled leverage and expertise in over one hundred different areas of overhead expenditure. The savings are on average 20%, achieved without compromising the quality of the goods or services purchased and, more often than not, without changing suppliers. Specialties Delivering profit improvement to companies, through sustainable cost reduction, on a "no savings, no fee" basis. Cost Reduction, Profit Improvement, Cost Management, Profit Retention, Procurement, Leveraging Purchasing Power, Benchmark Supplier Pricing, Supplier Negotiation, Profit Recovery, Cost Containment, Expense Reduction.
