Examples of

Locum Management work

 

 

Managing Director Worked for six months as locum Managing Director of a company manufacturing and direct selling conservatories.  During this time the business strategy was reviewed and the product range broadened by adding hardwood to the existing uPVC range.  This enabled better use to be made of leads generated by advertising.  A revised business plan and budget was prepared and improved controls put in place to give early warning of increases/decreases in sales and of manufacturing and installation requirements.
Property Director Worked for four months, following a re-organisation, carrying out a Property Director's estate development and store construction roles to allow time for the recruitment of new managers to head up the two new positions.
Production Director Worked for three months as locum Production Director of a company manufacturing door and window frames.  This was at a time when orders were falling and interest rates starting to rise dramatically.  Production planning was completely changed to enable short runs with quick changeover times, this gave flexibility to meet small orders quickly and reduced stockholding.
