About Simon

My Objectives

I am always seeking a position that will offer a challenge for me, and my clients. My value as a person is delivering a wide, and proven, skill set to individuals and business environments, picking out the gems and joining seemingly random parts to make a concise and profitable way forward. Although highly intuitive, the practical ‘result’ is essential, and to ‘make a difference’ is my highest goal.

Personal Attributes

• Creative entrepreneurial skills proven in a variety of international business situations including importation and development of products into national brands. Responsible for the infrastructure and dealer networks nationally as main importer, and contract relationships with international suppliers.
• High level interpersonal skills being able to work with professionals, interest groups and stake holders to ensure the success of a project. Most of my working life has blended working together with people at all levels of society and ability, as we look at a project or goal.
• Strongly intuitive with a natural ability to identify, develop and positively change a business situation. Often I can hear through the ‘noise’ of all the information to understand the viability of a product, or organisation, and push these key areas forward for success.
• A team builder with attention to employee’s skills and development. My leadership style would want to include all the people resources in an organisation while ensuring they are performing at, and within, their best abilities.
• Wide range of business skills, understanding: finances, management, marketing, advertising and media. Having built many products into brands I have learnt through practical experience either how to do a job myself or who to bring in.
• In numerous fields I have enjoyed selling a concept, idea or product, making it desirable and of value.
