Manufacturing COO
I am very interested in speaking with you regarding your search for a COO with expertise in leading a $150M industrial / chemical company to its next level of growth. My US and international expertise and achievements fit quite precisely with your requirements. For example:
Focus on Lean initiatives in the organization and work with both the executive suite and the management team on growth strategy and to improve efficiencies in the current operation
Applied strong Best Practices and Lean Manufacturing practices to optimize processes and turn a stagnant business into a dynamic growth engine; turned around INDEX CONTROLS from an over-leveraged family company to double the size and double the profit in five years, $7-15M on the top-line and $3-5M on the bottom with 10% less staff, 25% less inventory and an optimized delivery system.
Be involved with Mergers and Acquisitions
Led MBO / M&A activity for $250M division buyout and participated in further acquisitions.
Manage Strategic Growth and Set Performance Goals
Leveraged very strong cost accounting acumen to lead Master Planning and costing efforts and set pricing in the marketplace with the marketing group; grew sales 20% in the RF market to $16M.
I have had broad industry exposure as well as supply chain achievement, and have an MBA. My attached résumé addresses most of the other strengths and requirements you seek. I have worked closely with major clients, negotiated contracts and have been a supervisory presence on the shop floor in addition to supply chain management.
I look forward to discussing this opportunity of mutual benefit with you. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
