I can leverage this demonstrable success across a range of diverse businesses to effectively design and implement continuous project, supply chain, and production process improvement journeys. This recently includes leading a management structure optimization initiative at Johnson Brothers that reduced safety incidents by 48% and driver OT by 15% while improving on-time delivery by 10%. Across roles, I am instrumental in defining and optimizing operational communications while inspiring team engagement to deliver long-term cultural change.
