5 Stones Project & Support Services

About

As an experienced Director and Chief Operating Officer (COO), I specialize in Human Resources and operational management, overseeing costing calculations and leading the submission of quotations for diverse projects. With almost 40 years of experience spanning industries such as Warehousing, Construction, Education & Training, Finance, and Hospitality, my expertise lies in driving organizational strategy, enhancing operational efficiency, and delivering profitable outcomes across the African continent.

I have successfully managed large-scale projects, from full installation teams on-site to providing supervisory and senior project management services. My role involves managing multiple outputs simultaneously, ensuring that all operations are transparent, non-compromised, and aligned with legal and industry standards. As a leader, I prioritize team collaboration, listening to diverse perspectives to achieve optimal results.

In addition to my project management expertise, I offer freelance education program facilitation and course content presentation (lecturing), as well as business plan development and repositioning strategies for startups and established businesses. These services are designed to help businesses and individuals thrive by providing strategic guidance, practical insights, and tailored solutions for sustainable growth.

Some of my key achievements include planning and managing warehouse installations, both manual and automated systems, across the African continent and beyond, for clients such as Bevcan (RSA), Ethiopian Airways (Ethiopia), and Petrofac (UAE). I have also led complex projects in the automotive industry, notably overseeing the decommissioning of production lines at Mercedes Benz in East London under tight deadlines.

I am passionate about problem-solving, with a unique ability to investigate, assess, and present actionable solutions. I thrive in environments that foster personal interaction, integrity, and mutual respect, and I continuously seek opportunities to transfer my knowledge and contribute to business improvement strategies.

I look forward to connecting with organizations that value strategic thinking, operational excellence, and the transformative power of collaboration. Let’s explore how I can bring my extensive experience, skills, and passion to help drive your business forward.
