3 people have recommended William

"I first hired Bill in May 2010. He was very personable and displayed a sincere desire to provide a high level

of service to the Packaging Line as well as to internal customers such as Incoming Quality Assurance. He was

pretty much self taught on JD Edwards (warehouse management system) which was no small feat. In doing

so he was successfully responsible for all inventory receipts, movements, issuances to production, outbound

shipments, physical cycle counts (annual and monthly cycles), and destructions. He was also responsible for

DEA controlled substances storage and associated documentation. The best thing about Bill as the warehouse

manager was - I could count on him to get the job done and done correctly. That left me time to worry about

other things - but not his area. I recommend Bill as as an asset for anyone needing personality and excellent

work ethic in warehouse management."

Marty Damask, Director, Packaging Operations, Synthon Pharmaceuticals, Inc, managed William at

TransEnterix, Inc.

"To whom it may concern: It is my pleasure to recommend Bill Waller, his performance while working as a

Warehouse Manager for Synthon. He will be a valuable addition to any company. I have known him for two

years, while he worked as a Warehouse Manager at Synthon. I have been consistently impressed by both

Bill's attitude towards his work and his performance on the job. He has excellent written and verbal

communication skills, is extremely organized, can work independently, and as a team player. He is able to

efficiently multi-task to ensure that all tasks are completed in a timely manner. His interpersonal and

communication skills have allowed him to develop productive working relationships with both our clients and

our staff. He was able to communicate with clients for additional information and resolution of issues as

required for completing timely shipments. Bill did an excellent job in this position and was an asset to our

organization during his tenure with the Synthon. If his performance in our company is a good indication of

how he would perform in yours, he would be an extremely positive asset to your program. He would be an

asset to any employer and I recommend him for any endeavor he chooses to pursue. Yours truly, Mir Mehdi

Quality Assurance Manager Metrics, Inc."

Mir Mehdi, Quality Assurance Manager / QP, Synthon, worked with William at Synthon Pharmaceuticals

"Bill is as reliable as they come! As our Warehouse Manager at Synthon, Bill's role is critical to me. He

ensures our warehouse is kept extremely well organized and clean. He is responsible for all inventory

receipts, movements, issuances to production, outbound shipments, physical counts (annual and monthly

cycles), and destructions. Bill identifies obsolete and/or slow moving inventory timely and knows our

materials and the warehouse space very well. Beyond being an excellent Warehouse Manager, Bill is an

absolute joy to work with. Well liked and respected by his peers, he carries a constant smile on his face

daily...always willing to help in any way that he can. Bill is redefines collaboration and is a true team player!

Bill would be a significant asset to any organiation and I hope to work with him again in the future!"
