Over that period, I have overseen a full-scale change programme that has led to a more defined offering to the businesses long standing clients, a full change of brand, a new CRM and several adoptions of new and innovative tech and the opening of a new business in Scotland. All this has contributed to returning this long-standing business to profit.

At Morgan Hunt, our team's recent focus on data-driven decision making has significantly empowered the business. By designing and creating reporting suites and dashboards, we've made data insights accessible at all levels, ensuring that every decision is backed by solid evidence. Collaborating closely with sales and back office teams, we've also seen substantial improvements in business process optimisation and efficiency.
A key achievement has been the enhancement of CRM system engagement, particularly in transitioning from Dynamics 365 to Salesforce. This has driven improvements in core company productivity and technology ROI. Implementing and driving forward a comprehensive Data Integrity strategy has further solidified my dedication to fostering an environment where innovation and integrity go hand in hand.
