2. Systems Building & Standards Enforcement
* Build and enforce clear, repeatable operational systems that drive consistency and accountability across the group.
* Define and enforce execution standards for planning, delivery, reporting, and follow-through.

3. Project Coordination, Delivery & Discipline

* Eliminate weak, misaligned, or low-impact projects early, with documented rationale.

* Follow up aggressively on BD conversations to drive closure or clear decisions.
5. Financial & Operational Discipline
* Enforce budget discipline and operational cost control across the group.
* Optimise spending, minimise waste, and ensure resources are deployed toward priority outcomes.
Qualifications & Experience
