📖 Summary
Asda’s mission is to be Britain’s most trusted retailer, exceeding customer needs every day. We’re one of the largest grocers in the UK, with nearly 600 stores and around 200,000 employees. We’ve frequently been named one of Britain’s best places to work, winning the Top Employer award, Retail Week’s Employer of the Year and being placed in The Times newspaper’s ‘Best Companies To Work For.’ Since 1999 we have been part of Walmart, the world’s biggest retail company with nearly 11,000 stores worldwide. As a Vice President for Asda and Walmart, with over 20 years experience and having come up through the ranks, my role is to maximise our commercial opportunities by inspiring, developing and leading our people. I passionately believe in looking after our customers and colleagues, and striving to be the best you can be. I am totally aligned with Asda’s philosophy of giving talented people every opportunity to realise their potential. In every senior role I have had, I have taken care to select and mentor a successor ready to take over the role when I moved on. Succession planning guarantees continuity, innovation and business growth. On a personal level, I am an aspiring football coach and strive to give something back through my support for great organisations such as Teach First and Young Enterprise. I am lucky to have a wonderful and supportive wife and three beautiful children .It is really important to me to create the time outside of work to enjoy family life together and to encourage my children in their passions for sport, playing music and living life.Vice President of Store Proposition and Format Development @ From November 2014 to Present (1 year 2 months) Vice President of Small Formats @ From August 2013 to November 2014 (1 year 4 months) Operations Director, Scotland and Northern Ireland @ From January 2012 to August 2013 (1 year 8 months) Operations Director, Supermarkets @ From September 2011 to January 2012 (5 months) Director of Store Services @ Responsible for the strategy and provision of facilites management, utility consumption and cleaning within Asda.
