M&A advisor to Creative & Tech businesses

As a results-oriented Chief Operating Officer, I oversaw the rapid and successful expansion, tripling the size of the business within six months. Simultaneously, drove a comprehensive infrastructure overhaul, including the implementation of an ERP system, HR management system, and migration to a cloud-based platform.

Key Achievements:

1. Strong Growth: Executed strategic initiatives that achieved a threefold increase in business size within a short timeframe.
2. Digital Transformation: Spearheaded the seamless implementation of an ERP system, HR management system, and migration to the cloud.
3. Operational Efficiency: Streamlined processes, improved data accuracy, and enhanced decision-making capabilities through ERP integration.
4. Talent Management: Implemented a state-of-the-art HR system to streamline recruitment, onboarding, and talent management.
5. Scalability & Agility: Led the successful migration of operations to a cloud-based platform, enhancing scalability and fostering organizational agility.

With the ability to identify talent and bring out the best from high performance individuals, my fundamental ethos is grounded in three pillars: Accountability, Team Mentality and Continuous Improvement. 

My strategic approach to optimising processes, growth and technology integration is a testament to results-driven leadership and getting the best out of high performance leaders.
