/WHOIS/

Transformational COO. Systems thinker who rewires how a brand sources, makes and runs.

Maps the end-to-end pattern — operating model, supplier system, product data and teams as one design. Best fit where sourcing depth, operating-model change and future-ready supply (data, compliance, circularity) have to move together. Fractional · interim · advisory.

Transformation Sourcing Making-side supply Traceability & sustainability

/WHATIWDO/

Rebuild operating models

Redesign decision rights, cadence and the product-to-market loop so strategy can actually run — wholesale, retail, DTC and marketplace on one rhythm. Includes S&OP spine, cost-to-serve visibility and the enablement layer for systems and master data.

Operating model & COO transformation

Enable tech & AI in practice

From pilot to governed practice. Master data, handoffs and named owners so AI and platforms stick in planning, buying, procurement and ops — not another stranded demo. Same discipline that makes DPP and marketplace readiness hold.

Tech & AI enablement

Lead interim & fractional

Hands-on Transformational COO inside the organisation for a defined mandate — organisational redesign, supply and customer ops reset, or taking transformation from programme theatre to working practice.
