Like many people my career led me to a wide variety of business situations. After a dozen years in the Army I gained experience in managing specialist manufacturing for the print industry, in implementing warehouse management software and in 20 years of global supply chain management for medical device companies. Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) became the day-job while complex projects including acquisitions, integrations, ERP systems and technical manufacturing transfers provided a wealth of exposure to different organisations and business cultures. During the course of those years I lived and worked in the UK, Germany, Denmark and the USA and worked on a daily basis with teams spanning much of the globe.

Business:
Chilly Cow Ice Cream Ltd
Having established Chilly Cow over 10 years ago, I have seen it flourish from concept to a well-established Welsh brand. It is important to appreciate the hard work that goes into developing a business and having gained a first-class honours degree in business along the way brought valuable insight to the business in all aspects, helping me to develop areas we don’t always consider as small business owners.Chilly Cow has faced many challenges over the last ten years, but the resilience built off the back of this and the skills and confidence to adjust the journey along the way has been key, it is important to consider the flexibilities of a small business.
We have experience in both B2B trading and retail but also face challenges with the seasonality of our product, but we embrace this and find new and innovative ways to help meet the challenge this brings during quieter months.
With skills in business development, product development, branding, sales, packaging, costing and more I can bring valuable support and really help to identify needs; whilst considering actions to develop the business, but, sometimes as business owners, it can be a lonely place and we just need a listening ear, to talk through issues, anxieties or problems. Seeking out support when needed is key."
