Manchester, UK SAP Team Leader Manufacturing and Master Data Team Leader

I joined McBride almost 20 years ago and joined the GIS and SAP Applications team that look after the shop floor processes, Manufacturing, Warehouse Management, Quality etc. We also have responsibility for the SAP master data that drives the business, and the regulatory module of SAP that classifies our products. Originally we only supported and developed the UK systems and processes but in 2012 we became responsible for all the Manufacturing sites and Warehouse processes across McBride. I now lead that team. As the business strives for continuous improvement, we look for ways to use SAP functionality and new technology to support the business at an operational level. McBride believe in their people and as part of this support and development they have an internal Coaching and Mentoring Programme. They have supported my own development and I am now an internal coach - I coach people at all levels and from all areas of the business to help them understand their goals and their personal development. I have practiced as an internal coach for nearly 10 years and it gives me great satisfaction.

Powders, Aerosols and Asia Finance Director

I started working for McBride in 2016 as the Head of Finance for our South region (Italy and Spain). I have since covered the roles of Head of Finance Commercial (Europe) and now Finance Director for our Powders, Aerosols and Asia Divisions. I think this progression says a lot about the opportunities available at McBride and the possibilities to develop both professionally and personally within the company. Whilst always based in Finance, I regularly collaborate with the Commercial, Operations, Product Development and Supply Chain teams. In fact, this cross-functional Business Partnering has allowed me to learn about most parts of our organization. For me, bringing people together from different countries and backgrounds is one of the best aspects of a multinational company and this is very much part of McBride’s way of working - interacting with colleagues from McBride’s various sites. The diversity of the teams and the clear commitment of everyone at McBride makes it a rewarding place to work.
