Bringing 15+ years of success in project management, team leadership, and employee relations, I submit my qualifications in operations management for your review. Understanding the impact of staff engagement on business integrity, I build and maintain high-performing teams. Specifically, I headed a group of 20 personnel and managed multi-site operations with $7.5M in annual sales. Despite large-scale corporate changes, I ensured business continuity and high employee morale.
My background includes skills in purchasing, safety compliance, account management, client interfacing, facilities management, and quality control. In one instance, I drove the startup of a remodeling and new construction business, boosting revenue from 0 to $3m.
Dedicated to establishing efficiency and delivering results that coincide with business needs, I am confident my skills in small and large corporations will bring value to your current and future objectives. I welcome a personal meeting and look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Denise Seacrist
