Working alongside the CEO and commercial team, I was tasked to grow and support the business through numerous channels, namely by seeking new clientele, streamlining current processes, managing existing partnerships, and fine tuning the 'Outrival Experience' for both staff and members. - Reworked the model used for bringing on new clients and the passage through their life cycle with the company to improve retention and provide more value through their duration via a higher spend per client. - Handled administrative tasks such as pay roll and implemented KPI metrics for the company, as well as overseeing its integration and ongoing reporting. - Leveraged technology to 'automate the mundane' and allow staff to focus on the part of their jobs that mattered more - providing the customer a great experience. - Took over management of our CRM/POS system ('Mindbody') to centralise all transactions through the software and automate membership renewal/payroll/inventory. - Involved in the hiring and training of new staff alongside the owner as we looked to expand our team. - Worked alongside ownership to build an expansion plan and assess sites in London. This involved building a multi-scenario 5 year P & L forecast from scratch, which was used in a company valuation as well as to ascertain feasibility and profit potential. Show less

Director, Business Development and Operations Manager
-
Mar 2013 - Sep 2017
This role saw me manage day to day operations of the studo but also included in house accounting, pay roll, client relations and membership tracking. After a year, this morphed into working with the owners of the company to support the growth of CFPT through event planning, idea generation for diversifying and increasing profit, as well as Social Media control and marketing. In 2015, I was asked to join the Board of Directors as we looked to improve CFPT's regional reputation in the fitness industry. During my time as a director we saw the company increase revenue year on year, solidify ourselves as market leaders in the Hong Kong Crossfit scene, where we ran at above 90% membership capacity throughout my involvement. I was also exposed to executive level decision making and benefited from the collective experience offered by the other non-executive directors. Show less
