■ Career achievements: Devised a strategy for, and delivered on, revenue growth in excess of 25% year-on-year since taking over two lines of rugged embedded electronic products. Achieved through shifting focus onto providing customer solutions and simplified ordering options. Generated a single product concept to replace a range of legacy products sold into several markets. Received approval for funding the product development. The product is market leading in all key areas and was pre-ordered by multiple customers of the legacy products. Conceived an optimised plan and subsequently led a team of eight to transfer the design and manufacturing of a large range of products from an overseas site to the UK. The transfer was completed 18 months ahead of the original schedule and significantly under budget.
