About the Business
The business are a specialist plastic injection moulding and tooling manufacturer with revenues of approximately £100m per annum, operating across six locations in the UK, France, Poland and India.
Following a change of ownership in early 2022, the business has undergone a successful turnaround and continues to strengthen its operational foundations.

Compile a complete inventory of software licences, including usage levels and identification of duplication or redundancy
Review all external IT support providers, services provided and annual costs
Assess the email server and website/domain management setup across the Group

Produce a detailed written report including:
Summary of each site’s current IT setup
Key risks, gaps and issues identified
Recommended corrective actions
A practical, costed Group-wide IT improvement plan, including priorities, timelines and estimated costs
Deliverables
Comprehensive review and assessment completed within 3 months
Final report and recommendations presented at the end of the assignment
Clear proposal for next steps, with potential to extend the role into implementation and delivery

Managing and rationalising hardware, software and support providers
Delivering clear, actionable recommendations to senior stakeholders
Personal attributes:
