With over three decades of senior-level experience at Mars, Inc., a renowned family-owned multinational with a global presence and a turnover exceeding $45 billion, I have traversed eight countries across four continents. My professional journey at Mars began on the shop floor, evolving into various local and regional roles. In my tenure, I ascended to the position of Vice President Supply for the entire Americas region and later served as VP Manufacturing & Engineering on the North American Leadership team. In my pivotal roles, I led the development of industrial strategies, orchestrated multimillion-dollar capital investments, and oversaw manufacturing operations across multiple chocolate and gum production sites, managing a workforce of approximately 6000. Throughout my career, I adeptly navigated challenges such as production line closures and manufacturing site transitions, spearheading organizational and cultural changes with success. Directly overseeing numerous manufacturing sites has equipped me with firsthand knowledge of guiding large teams through significant changes, reaffirming the pivotal role of people as an organization's most valuable asset, and emphasizing the importance of a thoughtful and empathetic approach.
