Nov 2015 - Apr 2016
Allegra is an Australian owned ASX listed public company established in 1994. It operates in the life sciences industry where it manufactures & sells orthopaedic implants. As interim CEO, my immediate objective was to restructure & streamline the company and navigate its recent transition from being an in-house manufacturer to outsourcing its manufacturing. I then facilitated the engagement of a permanent CEO who will now take Allegra forward. I continue to be actively involved with Allegra on a consulting basis on projects as directed by Allegra's Board.
