Since joining FC Procurement in May this year, I continue to learn every day about our supply partners, our value proposition, how to exploit our improved website and most importantly, how to better understand our customers and specifically what they want and expect from us and our supply partners.

The current economic environment is difficult to work in and even more difficult to succeed in. Maintaining status quo is also a stretch target for most companies.  When someone comes along offering “a reduction in non-core overheads expenses”, your immediate reaction is, as was mine as a former Managing Director and Financial Director….what’s the catch? There is simply not one!

Five months have flown by fast. I look forward to helping more companies to  realise how easy it can be to save money over the next five months.

We read and hear the news these days all around the £81 billion in targeted national savings. FC Procurement has not set its client spend savings targets that high for now!

Come on England!

Inspired by James Corden’s call on his World Cup Live programme to Back the Beard and not shave until England

return home from the World Cup, I thought I might be able to generate some money for a good cause, Macmillan Cancer Support.

I shaved, as I do every day on the morning of Saturday 12th June, prior to England’s first match and will not shave again until England are coming home. Hopefully after a victorious World Cup Final on the 11th July. I will be regularly updating myTwitter feed with updated photos of my increasing hairiness.

If you’d like to support this worthy cause, so that my hairiness is not in vain, please visit:
