Greetings,
My name is John V. Ryan and for the last twenty plus years, I have been the Operations Manager, Plant Manager, Director of Operations, and General Manager for a several successful companies.
I have had full responsibility for staff, schedule, material purchasing, Customer satisfaction, quality, and P&L. I pride myself on my managerial skills, team building success and achieving company long term and short-term goals.
Leadership, operations efficiency, customer satisfaction, progressive management and growth are focal points, which I consistently maintained, in my professional career. For the past 25 years, I have been using my managerial skills to help business owners with operations, production, client relations, finance, sales, and manufacturing.
As you will notice in the enclosed resume, I have an extensive background and solid knowledge of managing operations, people and projects. I have accomplished multitudes of company goals, improved margins, reduced labor costs and material costs, while shortening turnaround times and increased throughput. I have implemented and developed complete ERP systems several times. I created the Production layout and workflow for a new building, and successfully moved the entire operation without ever halting production. I have a proven record of accomplishment in “getting the job done”. The keys are effective communication, customer focus, planning, team building, process improvement and problem solving.
My experience has helped me develop strong skills in profit/loss, business planning, operational improvements and employee relations. I believe that my attention to detail and ability to motivate personnel would be a valuable addition for your company. I have the potential to make a significant contribution for success.
I welcome the opportunity to discuss how my qualifications can serve and benefit your organization. You can reach me by phone or email. I am awaiting your reply. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
John V. Ryan
