They facilitate the success of each relevant department, planning activity, tweaking processes, managing inventory, and ensuring compliance with best practices. Their operational decisions involve a wide range of stakeholders from across their business and they are a hub of advice and strategic input. They are part of all key financial decisions and oversee the procurement and operational budgets. Quality assurance and compliance form a large part of their responsibilities, with health and safety governance ensuring that no disasters happen. Operations managers are often responsible for efficient project management and workforce deployment. On the people’s side, they are coaches, mentors and shining examples of how to do things properly. Experienced and effective Operations Managers bring forth valuable industry experience and passion for management. Results-oriented with a proven track record of improving overall operations within a company or department. Adept in analytical thinking, strategic planning, leadership, and the management of staff and procedures. *The Ovation Transfer project (Wealth). Had to co-ordinate and ensured that everything ran smooth from beginning to end. 100% success rate with this project. * Group Scheme Project building a professional relationship with the client as well as developing more efficient processes to ensure the stop order agreement/process ran smoothly. * Heading up the leads project in July 2004 on my own, what an amazing challenge.
