Following my tenure at Acil Group, I moved on to CMT Design and Construction, where I served as a Procurement Manager. In this role, I delved into the intricate world of supply chain dynamics, overseeing company inventory and managing supplier relationships. My negotiation skills and ability to ensure timely deliveries were crucial in supporting the company’s construction projects.

Moreover, I demonstrated my proficiency in cost-effective procurement by achieving substantial savings for the company. For instance, I negotiated a remarkable 25% reduction in the cost of plasterboard, resulting in hundreds of thousands of pounds in savings when considering the extensive usage of plasterboard across 14 construction sites. These cost-saving achievements underscore my dedication to maximising value for the organisations I serve.

Subsequently, I took on the role of Associate Director at KNT Group, where I managed a diverse portfolio of companies. Under my leadership, Terra Building Materials, a supplier and importer of bricks and mortar, achieved outstanding success. Within just six months of its establishment, we managed to sell an impressive 5 million bricks, surpassing all expectations.

I also ventured into e-commerce, establishing Ecco UK Trading Ltd, which operates under the trading names Eccobrick and MagicSlips. These online platforms have proven highly successful in selling brick slips and related products. Additionally, I oversaw the establishment of Tudor Door and Furniture Company, specialising in door manufacturing and ironmongery, as well as Cladmade Cladding Company, which developed innovative cladding systems.

Furthermore, I took on the significant responsibility of leading the operation expansion of Getir in the UK. I was among the first five employees entrusted with launching the business in the UK. Following the successful launch in London, I spearheaded the rapid expansion of Getir’s UK operations to 16 cities, with over 130 locations launched, an average of 11 locations per month. This expansion involved location analysis, property selection, negotiation, lease processes, store design, construction, and procuring all necessary equipment. I also supported the expansion into seven European countries and the USA, further underscoring my ability to manage large-scale international expansion efforts.

During my tenure at Getir UK division, I also played a crucial role in significant acquisitions. Notably, I secured a deal for a logistic centre in the UK, spanning approximately 100,000 square feet, in a prime location.

In my most recent role, I served as the leader of Getir’s Global Property Department, a pioneering fast grocery delivery business. This position required me to oversee a substantial 900+ property portfolio spanning eight countries, ensuring not only smooth day-to-day operations and project management but also the coordination of international teams for seamless project execution. This multifaceted role demanded precision in acquiring the right properties in optimal locations across various countries. I established rigorous standards, crafted comprehensive guidebooks for country-specific teams to follow, and put robust facility management structures in place. Additionally, I closely monitored monthly rent costs and executed property disposals when necessary. This hands-on experience allowed me to play a pivotal role in shaping Getir’s property strategy and ensuring its operational excellence worldwide.

My career has consistently demonstrated a dedication to excellence, innovative thinking, and the ability to achieve extraordinary results. I have harnessed my extensive knowledge and industry insights to empower businesses to thrive in the UK market through ATOG Group.
