I'm offering
Born in Yorkshire moved back to UK in February 2012.
I am a hard working, reliable individual with high standards and therefore expect the same high standards from people who are under my control. I believe in fairness and try to generate a working environment which is pleasant and comfortable. In this way, I encourage self motivation aiming at common goals and objectives.
Earning one's respect is prime so I lead by example. I see myself as an effective man manager with a mix of autocratic and democratic styles.
I thrive in a high-pressure environment and will always 'go the extra mile' when necessary.
I am a team player and believe that when we achieve, we all get the credit and when we fail we all fail and failing is not an option.

Production Manager
HV Wooding.
Responsible for the output and efficiency of 50 employees, turning over 24 million pounds a year. A modern 'world class' company supplying precision components into a variety of industries, including Aerospace (Rolls-Royce), Hybrid car development, Cern (Hadron Collider), Formula 1 teams and the MOD, working to tight tolerances as close as 5 microns.
I controlled a Press Shop, CNC Machining, Wire Erosion and Stores Receiving areas. Reported weekly to Operations Director on current items.
Strong discipline and planning are my strengths whilst keeping a good balance of being a team player at the same time being fair.
In order to keep control, I used KPI'S and employ other management tools such as APQP, 5S etc. whilst working closely with Quality, Maintenance and Purchasing Managers. The MRP system we used was similar to SAP and based on a buffer management design which looks at delivery date and back schedules as per routing to give latest start dates by department. We also ran a intranet based IMS system.
Delivery performance and quality performance were the foundations of the business.
We are accredited to DNV and have attained ISO9001 and are working to implement ISO 14001 and ISO 18001 by February this year. We run on LEAN manufacturing principles and adopt the principles of 'Theory of Constraints'
Our products are exported around the world and can compete with other world class manufacturers.
This 10 month contract was invaluable in enabling me to understand the business differences between the UK and SA. Particularly with respect to labour relations, environmental, and health and safety issues.
