SKILLS
ABOUT NATHANIEL HOCKINGS
Operations leader with an engineering mindset. I specialise in taking complex, underperforming operations and turning them into efficient, sustainable, and profitable functions.My career spans 13+ years across two distinct chapters: a decade in operational consulting at Arup, advising executive teams on some of the UK\'s most complex infrastructure and transformation programmes, followed by a move into the COO seat in FMCG food production and delivery where I\'ve led turnarounds, acquisitions, and large-scale integrations.What I bring to every role- P&L ownership and financial discipline (£7m+ budgets, 10pp gross margin improvement)- Team leadership at scale (100+ across production, logistics, and operations)- The ability to cut through complexity and find the real problem, design a practical solution, and deliver it- Strategic foresight shaped by years advising C-suite clients on organisational changeI\'m most effective in businesses that are growing fast, integrating, or need to be stabilised and scaled. If you\'re building something ambitious and need an operator who can see the big picture and execute in the detail, let\'s talk.
