  • Mar 2008 - Jul 2012

  Until mid-2010 I was mainly involved in the Sales and Marketing area, redefining brand and private label strategies, re-segmenting and repositioning the assortment, as well as strengthening the direct and indirect sales force. Personally, I carried on an intense activity of acquiring new customers and developing the new Scrubber Dryer Division, achieving a significant turnover. From the second half of 2010 until mid-2012 I worked on adding the new management system, revising all the processes and the company layout; in parallel I started a project of cost reduction and of profound improvement of the after-sales service, drastically reducing the average time for setting up spare parts. The overall restructuring led to a significant reduction in circulating inventory and an increase in overall efficiency. Although with the difficulties generated by a market in sharp decline, the company resumed a virtuous path, producing double digit EBITDA at the end of 2012. Show less
