Under this system we were able to reach a milestone in October 2014. Sales growth was directly connected to the 5 massive catalogues I helped create. I was able to put into place all the skills I had learned from my previous roles. This is where l learned how to analyse and quantify products and how to best present to market our business offering. My main responsibilities were to maintain the IT systems and business continuity at Tomkin but towards the end of my employment I was closely working with the managing director helping with reporting, budgets, business intelligence and business strategy. My role changed from CTO to unofficially COO I was heavily involved in all aspects of the business.

I consider myself a very hard working, positive, quick thinking professional with great business intellect whom loves a new challenge. Show less
