Real feedback from businesses and people I've worked with.
"Charlie was hands-on from day one. He helped take ICP Logistics from a small Spanish subsidiary to a serious player in the UK starting with data cleansing and commercial strategy through to client acquisition. He didn't just advise from the sidelines; he got involved, found opportunities and helped us win business."
"Charlie came in early and quickly got to grips with the business. He carried out a commercial analysis and data cleanse that gave us a much clearer picture of where the opportunities were. What stood out was his hands-on, no-nonsense approach. He gets stuck in, asks the right questions and focuses on what will actually move the business forward."
"We’re currently working with Charlie as he manages our UK marketplaces and helps shape the direction of our new UK subsidiary. Although we’re still early in the journey, he’s been extremely hands-on and on the ball staying close to our campaigns, spotting opportunities and helping us work out the right direction for the business."
