Project management portfolio · Updated September 2026
A record of projects managed across finance, operations, property, packaging, funding and community. I have grouped them by discipline rather than by employer, because the same way of working runs through all of it: understand the real problem, design a system to fix it, then stay on the ground until it is delivered.
The principle
Understand the real problem, design a system to fix it, then stay on the ground until it is delivered.
If a fix cannot be repeated by someone else next month, it is not finished.
One method, whether the job is a set of company accounts or a shipping container of printed film.
And then the step most people skip: I stay for delivery. Advice on its own rarely changes anything, so on almost every project here I did not just recommend the change, I stayed and embedded it with the people who had to live with it.
The flagship work: sourced, refurbished, tenanted and delivered across the UK. Each project ran the same loop, research demand, choose the highest-value improvements, control the spend, minimise the void.
| Location | Property | Gross yield |
|---|---|---|
| Glasgow | 2-bed flat | 9.4% |
| Edinburgh | 4-bed terrace | 8.4% |
| Aberdeen | 2-bed flat | 8.2% |
| Glasgow | 2-bed flat | 7.4% |
| South Wales | 3-bed terrace | 7.3% |
| South Wales | 2-bed end-terrace | 6.8% |
Six completed refurbishments, realised gross yields from 6.8% to 9.4%, each let shortly after works, on time and on budget. Alongside the deals I built staged buy-to-let investment plans and property-services models that take an investor from first market analysis to a tenanted, income-producing portfolio.
An industrial distributor
Wrong shipments, sales and purchasing pulling against each other, cash tied up in late payments. I built one order-to-cash process: standardised intake, automated purchase orders, live tracking and delivery-linked invoicing.
80% fewer product returns within six months; cash flow stabilised.
A business services firm
An internal audit of processes that had grown too slow. I found fragmented systems, undocumented procedures and layered approvals, and set out a single ERP, documented SOPs and streamlined approvals.
A clear roadmap to shorter cycle times and consistent delivery.
Complex, on-order packaging run end to end on the disciplined No Trust process, from artwork to customs. Every job advances only on signed artwork, confirmed samples and supplier due diligence, never on assumption.
A global semiconductor manufacturer
A twelve-month sourcing and testing cycle across a global supplier network until a sample passed the specification for storing sensitive chips.
Qualified to a demanding technical standard.
An agri-food producer
A plastic-free, branded carton egg container, a first for the Maltese market, taken from design through supplier due diligence to delivery.
A sustainable product launched to spec.
A food producer, a retailer and a food manufacturer
A new film matched to a new machine and proven on the line; durable reusable branded bags turned around within five days of port arrival; LDPE bags re-engineered into cost-effective pouches sourced across three regions.
Delivered on budget, without losing quality.
Building something from a blank page, running it in front of a crowd, and putting the funding case together underneath.
VistaPak · new venture
I founded VistaPak on a lean, on-order model for the food industry and wrote every part of it myself: the business plan, the financial model, the supplier network and the day-to-day operation. Alongside it I have written full business plans and market-entry strategies for ventures in property services and consumer services.
Taken from launch to a profitable, self-sustaining operation within two years.
Events and community
Community and cultural projects delivered end to end, most notably the Qormi Bread Festival: a two-day national street festival opened by the President of Malta, backed by more than thirty sponsors and built around several thousand visitors, directed with a team of over 100 staff and volunteers.
Funding and grants
Grant-readiness work, financial models and applications across EU and national routes, including Erasmus+, ERDF, ESF+, JEREMIE and Micro Invest, on the bidding side.
Twelve disciplines, one track record. The case studies above are the highlights; this is the full range the same method has covered.
Full business plans and market-entry strategies, each with a staged roadmap and numbers built to hold up under scrutiny.
VistaPak
A specialisation-led, relationship-first plan for on-order food packaging, taken from a blank page to a profitable operation.
Property plans
Multi-stage plans moving an investor from income to capital growth, and a property-services model spanning administration, sourcing and an investor network.
Consumer and writing
A tiered domestic-services business and a self-funded professional-writing consultancy, each with a phased, costed market-entry plan.
Alongside the projects, I have taken interim and advisory scopes at CEO, COO and CFO level: writing the operations manual, building the standard procedures and internal audit, and setting the KPI reporting so the business could run and prove it after I left. The test is always the same, that the fix outlives me.
Projects with a clear start, a defined outcome and someone depending on it: operations and finance redesigns, property refurbishments, packaging and supply, funding cases, business plans and community events. If it needs a system built around it, it fits.
I deliver. On almost every project here I did not just recommend the change, I stayed on the ground and embedded it with the people who had to live with it. Advice on its own rarely changes anything.
It starts with a diagnosis of how things really run, then a written plan with owners, milestones and measures. You get a system you can keep using, not a report that sits in a drawer.
A disciplined method for supply and packaging work: sign off artwork, confirm two pre-production samples, do supplier due diligence, then manage production and logistics to the door. Nothing moves to the next stage on assumption.
From owner-run SMEs to multinationals, across finance, manufacturing and supply, property, education and the public sector, in Malta and the United Kingdom.
More of the same record, and where the working version of it lives.
