Michael Delogan

 PROFILE A highly skilled and results-oriented Project Manager and Quality Engineer with extensive experience in Quality management system and project management. Bagged MSc in Project Management at Teesside University, I bring a strong technical background with a BSc in Mechanical Engineering and a Higher National Diploma in the field. My industrial placement at Think Pacific Foundation involved leading the design and implementation of a rainwater harvesting system for a community of 220 individuals, managing a budget of $74,312, and ensuring sustainable solutions for water access. Previously, I worked as a Quality Engineer at Kimberly Clark SSA, where I successfully led projects to implement Quality Management Systems (QMS) for a $100 million diaper plant. I drove continuous improvement initiatives, optimised data processes, and achieved significant cost reductions and operational efficiencies. My technical expertise is complemented by a strong foundation in lean Six Sigma, risk management, root cause analysis, and quality audits. With excellent leadership, communication, and project management skills, I have consistently delivered high-impact projects that align with both operational goals and customer expectations. .
