πŸš€ Other Experience

πŸ›‘οΈ Strategic Consulting @ Ministry of Defence

Sept 2023 – Dec 2023

Operating within the "Mission Driven Entrepreneurship" framework, I led a consultancy team for the Defence School of Intelligence.

  • Problem Discovery: We conducted deep-dive interviews with MoD personnel, civil servants, and contractors to cut through the noise and identify the root causes of organisational friction.
  • Solution Design: We moved beyond theory to deliver a practical implementation roadmap that balanced strict security requirements with the need for organisational agility.

🏭 Business Systems Analysis @ Manufacturing Sector

Jan 2023 – June 2023

Centred on operational efficiency, I worked directly with leadership to map the "as-is" operating model and identify critical bottlenecks.

  • Operating Model Analysis: I collaborated with an Associate Director to produce a comprehensive report on the operating model, highlighting organisational bottlenecks through rigorous data synthesis and interview analysis.
  • Workflow Optimisation: I applied process mapping and SWOT analysis to identify specific delays in procurement approvals.
  • Evidence-Based Change: My final report and presentation to the board directly influenced changes to improve turnaround times.
