Summary

"A seasoned industrial leader with 12+ years of experience managing workforces of 200+ employees and a proven track record in Virtual Manufacturing. I bridge the gap between high-level technology and shop-floor execution, specializing in massive-scale components like 30T Steel and 28T SG Iron castings.

My career is defined by a global perspective on innovation, supported by extensive business visits to Turkey, China, and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for technical audits, supplier evaluations, and market expansion. I maintain strong technical partnerships with industry leaders such as Magmasoft, Foseco, Cukurova Kimya, and SQ China, leading New Product Development (NPD) initiatives that have delivered an 8% reduction in rejection costs and a 15% reduction in rework expenses.

My strength in Production Planning recently led Qadri Group to its highest-ever production records, achieving a peak monthly tonnage of 586T and an annual output of 4,200T.

Adept at leading cross-functional teams, fostering empathetic team leadership, and executing strategic planning with a focus on KPI identification and tracking. Committed to advancing market analysis and sales strategy development while excelling in customer relationship building and contract development.
