Description
Interim Business Unit Manager, P & L responsible for a £2M turnover business unit (part of very large energy group)
Achievements:

-
Closed out legacy issues and millions of pounds in contract liabilities
-
Integrated the unit elements into other French and US business units
As Interim Unit Manager for a business unit developing energy trading software to UK market regulations, I ran the business, focusing on:
- supporting completion of a large group led contract.
- closing out many problem legacy contracts with associated liabilities, all of which were achieved.
- ensuring profitable outcomes for other smaller contracts.
- rebuilding of the order book.
In parallel, I developed an approach for the part migration of activity to the US and the remaining activity to merge with a European business unit – giving the best chance for commercial viability in the market sector.
I stewarded the business unit through the transition, resolving a myriad and diverse range of issues both real and political.
