ProfessionalProfile
 My 24 years of HR and business experience enables me to understand the Strategic and
Operational demands of a business. This experience base was acquired across a wide
range of industry sectors (e.g. business consulting, mining, FMCG and security) as well
an equal amount of time as a Shared Services Partner as a Profit Centre Business
Partner.
 My extensive local and international HR, OD and related System consulting experience
renders a solid foundation from which I could operate in any industry sector across the
globe with comfort.
 My continuous professional development assist in me staying on top of latest trends in my
field of expertise (the full HR and OD spectrum) as reflected in my contribution to ongoing
paper, articles and professional publications.
ProfessionalAccomplishments
 2010 – current: Group HR Director (Stallion Security)
Required to establish and grow a professional HR Shared Services division and two Profit
Centred divisions (Stallion Learning Centre and the Investigations Division) with total staff
compliment of 35 people.
o Achievements:
o Developing a Learning Centre on a national basis that trained on average
2500 learners per annum across South Africa.
o Established an Investigations Unit with professional Polygraphists and turned
this into a profitable business within 18 month. They were primarily
responsible for Truth Verification Assessments, investigations and managing
of agents and clandestine operations.
o Established a Learning Culture with the design of a two tier management
development programme and a range of Organisational Development
interventions.
o Establishing a professional service HR Division with a team of Industrial
Psychologists providing outsourced consulting services as well as an internal
Stallion-focussed Shared Service. Secured an international contract with the
Olive Group (UK) to provide HR and Recruiting service in Iraq and Middle East
which reduced the Shared Services cost to Stallion by 45%.
o Managing a successful IR Department with 40 CCMA cases & 150 disciplinary
hearings per month and on average 6 Labour Court cases per year.
o The successful resolution of three major business labour unrest scenarios
during 2012 and 2013.

over the last 2 years.

2.  2008 – 2010: Head of Department, HR Consulting (Softline SAGE)
I was responsible for the establishment of a professional services business model, the
sales of its newly designed Premier HR System and the establishment of an HR
Consulting Service.

Reason for leaving: I was approached by Mindcor Executive search to take up the
challenge of establishing a new HR Division in one of the 10 largest Security firms in SA.
The consulting business was by then well entrenched to enable me to hand this over to
one of my managers to maintain. A strong contributor to moving on was the introduction
of a new product (People) which effectively reduced the market of Premier HR over the
years to come.

Policies and Procedures system, redesign and structuring of HR function in
the group, integration of previously out-sourced payroll function and a group-

business. I left to start Business Care (Pty) Ltd in 2004, a successful Performance
Management Consultancy.
