What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead printing and packaging operations where I can drive operational excellence—factory setup/commissioning, ISO/TPM/TQM quality systems, cost and waste reduction, and technical training—while managing multicultural teams and complex production machinery.

I’m a Printing & Packaging Technology professional with 30+ years of international experience across commercial printing, paper converting, mono carton print-packaging, plastic moulding, flexible packaging, newspaper printing, publishing, security printing, and corrugated carton packaging—spanning Africa and India. I focus on factory setup and commissioning, production management, and technical training that turns shop-floor capability into measurable results.

I’ve built and led operations that improve quality and throughput by implementing ISO/TPM/TQM systems, driving lean process improvement, and reducing production costs, waste, and downtime. In roles such as Printing Technology Manager and General Manager – Operations, I’ve supervised maintenance and production planning, ensured compliance and quality standards, and successfully led multicultural teams while commissioning advanced printing and packaging machinery.
