Brendan is a pleasure to work with. He is always professional, excellent at relationship management, and a skilled communicator. He is a team leader, and knows how to bring and keep the team together even in stressful situations. He drives projects to completion in an efficient manner and knows how to get things done no matter how tight the deadline. He gets the most from his team while keeping a keen eye on the cost flow, operations planning, and sales orders as well as to manage the big picture of the P&L, revenue, and cost.

Brendan and I have known each other for some years now. We have participated in team sport together and I have worked with him on a professional services level. He is dedicated and knowledgeable. He has where and when needed been very capable to assist my past clients with advise in his specialist field.
