Dear Executive Recruiter:

I am in the process of seeking a new produce leadership position where I can use my skills in:

• Purchasing - purchased more than 3 billion pounds of fresh produce for the Ralphs grocery chain

• Strategic planning - established a new cooler consolidation program that completely changed the way Ralphs moves raw products nationwide and saves $200,000 in transportation costs annually

• Product development - developed custom green leaf fillet products for Subway's premium sandwich line, Carls Jr's new fresh salad bowl and other programs using resources in Canada, Central America, Mexico and the U.S.

• Packaging - developed a returnable plastic/fiber container program that reduced overall costs by $500,000 annually

• Vendor relations - developed and managed relations with more than 50 produce vendors globally

• Budgeting - successfully managed budgets in excess of $150 million

• Logistics - managed the infrastructure of inbound and outbound raw produce deliveries on a just-in-time basis from field-to-plant for an $900 million produce manufacturer.

If you are working on a client assignment requiring a produce manager with demonstrated skills in running profitable produce operations, I would welcome your call.

Sincerely,

 

Jack Jefferson
