During 2020 working with three SME’s in Scotland to restructure and reorganise the business during covid19 period. Executive, Lean, HR consultant advising clients in the manufacturing, logistics, legal, Interior design and engineering sectors.

·         One manufacturing SME has more than doubled in size in less than 3 months due to the ability to pivot effectively when it’s core market collapsed at the start of lockdown and it began to manufacture hand sanitiser. Restructured whole company introducing business divisions and group support structure, created new operating board and mentored owners into new ‘C’ suite roles.

·         Two other SME’s (logistics and interior design) have needed support to restructure their businesses as declining markets has led to firstly furloughed staff then redundancies.
