Personal profile
Personal Statement
I am a senior teaching fellow (Associate Professor) in the Department of Management Science where I also received my PhD and MSc. I teach subjects related to operations management, ERP and technical risk management. I am a senior fellow of The Higher Education Academy. I am also a reviewer for Operations Management Research Journal. My research interest lies in the area of supply chain management in general. In particular, I am interested in the supply chain risk and resilience analysis, digital supply chains, operations innovation and supply chain management of the renewable energy sector. I am supervising currently 6 PhD projects in these areas. I am happy to supervise new PhD students who have the same research interests and able to demonstrate the application of their research using real case studies
