Bio
Ed Stubbs
Matt and I have worked closely together in a number of capacities over 10 years, predominantly at Loadhog Ltd where Matt led the operations through a period of significant change and success, culminating in the awarding of the IMECHE awards for Best SME in the UK and People Effectiveness. Matt is passionate, principled and professional. His blend of high level operations, financial and general management leadership, combined with his commitment and innovation in engaging and developing employees makes him a rare and unique candidate for any developing business looking for high level leadership to strengthen in these areas.

I first met Matt when he was at Loadhog and have worked in support of him and his team members there and at PMS Diecasting. Matt is a very skilled executive with a strong background in finance, commerce and operations. He made what others could see as the natural the step up to Managing Director when he joined PMS and was very successful in that role. He provided clear leadership and direction, focused the business on its core priorities and inspired its people to perform and succeed. As a result the business addressed historic problems to deliver what both shareholders and customers wanted. Matt is a thinker and a doer who gives his role 100% and asks the same from his people. Not afraid to make principled and tough decisions, he is now ready for his next MD role in a business that is ready for its next step up.
