About Cy Wilkinson

I’m Cy Wilkinson, an MBA-qualified CEO and business turnaround specialist with over 38 years’ experience in manufacturing and engineering, including more than 20 years in senior leadership. Based in Warwick, I combine operational experience with commercial judgement to help businesses manage change and improve performance.

I studied Lean Manufacturing at MSc level and progressed through Business Unit Manager, Manufacturing Manager and Operations Director roles before becoming Managing Director and now CEO. That operational grounding shapes how I work: understand the facts, involve the team and connect improvements on the shop floor with commercial priorities.

Practical turnaround and operational improvement

We start by understanding cash flow, customers, margins, costs, operations and the capability of your team. Together, we identify priorities, agree an achievable action plan and put clear responsibility behind delivery. The focus is on improvements your business can measure and sustain.

Transformation and growth

My work covers operational efficiency, cost reduction, commercial performance, strategy development and leadership support. I bring experience of international business development, helping your team connect day-to-day decisions with longer-term objectives.

Working with your team

Support can start with a focused business review and develop into an action plan, hands-on implementation or flexible advice, with dates to be agreed. We agree the scope and priorities together, then work alongside your team to put the plan into practice.

A trusted network of sales and quality experts

Where an assignment needs additional specialist input, I can draw on a trusted network of sales and quality experts. We agree the right involvement for your business, whether the priority is sales performance, quality systems or operational delivery.

If your business needs a clearer direction, stronger margins or support through a difficult period, get in touch to discuss your priorities and a practical next step.
