Bio
John Manley
I had the pleasure of working with Paul for almost 2 years. At the time the packaging area was going through a large operational change program. With direct responsibility for over 50% of the shift operations, Paul was instrumental in successfully delivering this change. He brought very strong technical skill's to the role which he leveraged on a number of cost improvement initiatives. He has excellent people skill's, combined with a very open style of communicating. He works well in a team and can bring leadership and direction to a team. He takes a high level of accountability in his work and II would have no hesitation in recommending Paul for future roles.

Paul continues to be a critical player in the Team at Pfizer. His ability to turn complex start-up processing issues into simplified and executable business practices helped transform a green field €400 million project into a demonstrated commercial driven organisation. Paul is self driven and well organised, and leads his team with performance, growth and success has his key deliverables. I regarded Paul as my key 'go-too' guy for audit readiness, as an Automation SME and as an Active coating SME. I would recommend Pauls work without hesitation.
