## About

```text
At Tesla Motors Limited, I directed UK and Ireland home-delivery and vehicle registration operations, coordinating cross-functional teams and external stakeholders while maintaining regulatory compliance.

I reduced quarterly operational spend from £1.4M to £150k by transitioning delivery operations in-house while maintaining delivery volumes. I also introduced supplier contracts, MSAs, SOPs and vendor KPIs to improve accountability and operational consistency.

Earlier at Tesla, I supervised national home-delivery operations and coached Operations Specialists. I started there managing customer vehicle delivery journeys, preparing vehicles and CRM records for appointments.
