Rok Govc

I am a highly adaptable and results-driven business professional with over a decade of experience in driving growth, managing complex operations, and optimizing sales across a wide range of industries. I have had the opportunity to develop my expertise through various roles in manufacturing, project management, and entrepreneurship. Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a keen ability to navigate different business environments, making me a valuable asset to organizations looking to expand or streamline their operations.

My career began as a CAD technician at Forstek d.o.o., where I specialized in drawing models of tools and dies for the pharmaceutical and glass industries. This technical role gave me a strong foundation in understanding production processes, which proved invaluable as I transitioned into management positions. I moved on to Plamtex d.o.o. as a project manager, where I was responsible for overseeing the production of injection molding tools. In this role, I coordinated various departments, including CAD, CAM, purchasing, manufacturing, and logistics, ensuring that projects were delivered on time and within budget. I also negotiated with over 100 suppliers to secure the best prices and timely deliveries, further honing my skills in supply chain management and operations coordination.

In 2018, I took on the role of restaurant manager at Gostišče Marjola, a family business, while my mother recovered from surgery. Managing the restaurant allowed me to develop a new set of managerial skills in a different industry. I handled all aspects of the restaurant’s daily operations, including staffing, logistics, inventory, and compliance with health regulations. This experience deepened my ability to manage diverse teams and operations while maintaining a high standard of service.

In October 2020, I co-founded TIPO d.o.o., a company specializing in cold stamping tools for the automotive industry. As one of the founding partners, I have been responsible for managing finance, accounting, sales, and logistics. My efforts have played a crucial role in growing the company's revenue from €320,000 in 2021 to over €1.6 million in 2022. We have secured prominent clients such as Mercedes, Audi, BMW, Lamborghini, and more, thanks to our focus on quality and precision.

Fluent in English and Slovenian, with conversational proficiency in German and Spanish, I am well-equipped to work in international environments. I thrive on contributing to the growth and success of diverse teams, using my broad range of skills and experience to drive impactful results.
