Bio
Nik Langrish-Dixon
I had the pleasure of working alongside Craig for eight months at Whitworths. His versatility meant he was also asked to pick up the planning function and managing the Factory. Craig is both tenacious and charismatic in terms of management style. He understands the situation quickly and makes grounded balanced decisions. Inspiring others ensure that Craig take his team and stakeholders on the same journey.

I've worked with a number of consultants over the years on improvement projects. Some experiences were underwhelming, some were just satisfactory but the odd few were excellent. My experience with Craig as a consultant to Symington's falls into the excellent category. Craig is extremely knowledgeable, focussed and results driven - but he's a nice guy too. I would highly recommend working with Craig as your consultant if you want rapid, sustainable improvements.

May 2013 - Apr 2016
Leading a team of consultants, I delivered innovative solutions to deliver transformational change for our clients. Each program of work was entirely different, requiring differing skill sets and approaches. It was crucial to communicate effectively with integrity at all levels of a client’s business. As well as delivering bottom line improvements for my clients we also helped to develop their internal culture for improvements. Understanding the specific needs and wants of their company. Project delivery, Budget management, Talent recruitment and nurturing of stakeholder relationships were my responsibility. Show less
