Working alongside management teams in a hands-on, pragmatic way to manage and communicate with complex stakeholder networks.
We work in several targeted sectors, in organisations facing challenges requiring turnaround, transformation or transition.
In 2009, the company had £2bn in revenues from business in Greater China (Aerospace, Marine, Energy, Nuclear), yet continued to manage this business through a representative office. The structure was unsustainable for the size and complexity of the future business needs.
A University facing a period of unprecedented distress and imminent closure engaged Kingsgate to support the finance team and to oversee delivery of critical projects.
The company committed to shareholders the delivery of $100m in productivity related savings over 4-years, underpinned by a culture shift. The business had significant growth potential. However internal operating efficiencies were behind industry benchmarks and were limiting the ability to realise growth.
The company was in severe financial distress. The business had become over-leveraged following a difficult product launch. Investment was required to deliver a further 40% increase in production capacity, whilst ensuring a sustainable cost base could be achieved.
Kingsgate’s expertise was required to lead the financial and operational turnaround of a £50m loss-making supply-chain division with a view to then disposing of the profitable business.
Kingsgate were engaged as CEO with the remit to take a business with turnover of £29 million and £400k loss to £50 million turnover and £1.6 million PBT
