ABOUT EMMA WILLIAMSON

A collaborative leader whose passionate about building honest relationships and uses her experience, positive mindset and continuous improvement tools and techniques to lead and work with others through changing environments. Building on a variety of roles over 15 years in Sales, Operations, Retail, Marketing, Pricing, Strategy and Supply Chain this then led to the next 15 years focusing on either leading or being part of varied transformation and continuous improvement programmes /projects where goals were to deliver increased value to customers, improve safety, drive business performance or increase satisfaction scores with colleagues. Scope has included organizational, systems, digital and process efficiency improvements. In the last 5 of those years I have been part of a culturally diverse European Leadership Team to deliver transformational activities across 11 European countries plus Southern Africa for bp. I am use to working with multiple consulting partners to support delivery. My last role was as Business Advisor & Transformation Manager to the SVP mobility & convenience Europe & Southern Africa, formed as part of Customer & Products in the reinvention of bp in July 2020.For me, continually listening to colleagues and customers provides precious insights that can help achieve business and people\'s ambitions and goals. I am analytical, I seek data to drive performance conversations and to prioritize work. I love to hear about risks or challenges and know you can have a strong safety record and great performance. I am a leader who knows the benefits of diversity & inclusion in teams and has learnt from many coaching and mentoring experiences that everyone has their own context and that to enable people to grow you need to build trust, listen, empathize and support them over time.
