From the shop floor
to the business case.

I work where operations and numbers meet: seeing where a company loses margin, and turning that into a decision that holds up. Background in industrial engineering and management, currently MSc Management with a specialisation in Financial Management.

01 · Background

What I am good at, and why those things connect.

Operations

Seeing where the margin sits

Taking a process apart until it is clear where time, money and capacity leak away, and which intervention actually fixes it.

Finance

Decisions that hold up

Basing choices on data rather than assumption. Cost, risk and return as the ground for the decision that follows.

Mindset

Ownership

Taking responsibility, spotting opportunities and turning ideas into something that is actually finished. Practical, with an eye on the result.
