Summary

Experienced logistics and operations leader with extensive experience in inventory management, supply chain coordination, and warehouse optimisation. Developed through years of hands-on leadership in family-run and fast-scaling businesses, I've overseen multi-channel fulfillment (wholesale, retail, and e-commerce), managed inventory across several local and international 3PL warehouses, and consistently delivered measurable improvements in efficiency, accuracy, and cost control. I've managed end-to-end supply chain operations for high-revenue businesses, overseeing major procurement and inventory investments with full responsibility for cost, performance, and delivery. Skilled in streamlining processes, managing teams, and building systems that scale with growth, I bring a practical and solutions-focused approach to operations.
