About

Professional summary

I am an operations manager with more than nine years of logistics experience and seven years in Amazon last-mile delivery. I progressed from delivery driver to On-Site Manager within five months and to Area Manager in under two years.

I lead multi-site delivery operations across South Wales and South West England, managing site leaders, large driver workforces, performance reporting, capacity planning, operational risk, and high-priority escalations. I am experienced in stabilising underperforming sites, improving delivery quality, and building practical procedures that scale.

I work closely with Amazon station and account teams, company owners, fleet, HR, recruitment, and external partners. My work includes KPI management, recruitment, coaching, SLA delivery, compliance, budget input, and cross-functional problem solving across countries.

I also build technology to solve operational problems. I founded NEXUS DSP, a B2B SaaS platform for automated driver-level analytics, coaching, compliance tracking, and workforce-platform integrations.

I use AI-enabled development workflows, Python, SQL, Next.js, Supabase, APIs, and cloud infrastructure to turn operational requirements into production tools. I am interested in remote operations, project delivery, SaaS, automation, and stakeholder management roles across UK and European time zones.

Career history

Area Manager, Regional Operations C&W Transport Ltd (Amazon Delivery Service Partner)

I lead regional operations across three delivery sites in Swansea, Exeter, and Plymouth, managing three site managers, more than 100 drivers, approximately 12,000 parcels daily, and over £6 million in annual revenue. During the 2022 peak, I managed nine sites, nine site managers, and more than 270 drivers.

I oversee delivery quality, workforce planning, recruitment, operational procedures, performance reporting, and critical escalations with Amazon and internal teams. I improved Swansea's Amazon performance score from 49% to 91% in six weeks, created a returns process that eliminated recurring lost-parcel failures, introduced API-driven driver bonus payments, and developed live-data forecasting for driver pace and route completion.

Founder NEXUS DSP

I founded NEXUS DSP as a B2B SaaS platform to automate driver-level performance analytics, coaching workflows, compliance tracking, and reporting for delivery operators. I designed and delivered the product independently, covering product specification, development direction, releases, user onboarding, and support.

I use an AI-first engineering workflow, directing parallel Claude Code agents through detailed specifications while applying reviews, automated testing, and release controls. The production platform includes a 65-table database, more than 230 data-security policies, over 200 automated test files, Stripe subscriptions, API integration with a workforce platform, nightly synchronization of more than 1,700 driver records, Cyber Essentials certification, ICO registration, and EU data hosting.

On-Site Manager C&W Transport Ltd

I managed daily delivery-site operations in South Wales, scaling the operation from seven to 64 daily routes and from three to 97 drivers by the end of 2020. I managed more than 90 drivers and five team leads, including peak shifts handling up to 11,000 parcels.

I planned shifts and capacity against volume forecasts, exceeded the annual volume forecast by 10%, and worked with Amazon management on driver safety. I joined the organisation as a delivery driver in June 2019 and was promoted to On-Site Manager within five months.

International Transport Manager Dumagas Transport SA

I managed day-to-day planning for an EU cross-border lorry fleet in Craiova, Romania. I allocated import and export loads to maximise vehicle utilisation, maintain schedules, and support service-level performance.

I prepared driver schedules while controlling payroll costs, monitored operational data to identify and resolve delays, managed key customer accounts, and trained the planning team.
