Plant Head | Steel Manufacturing Operations Consultant | Corex, Pelletization & Beneficiation

I am a senior steel manufacturing professional with 25+ years of leadership experience across Corex iron making, ore beneficiation, and pelletization operations, having led large, asset-intensive plants with full end-to-end accountability for safety, production, maintenance, cost control, and people development.
I specialize in stabilizing complex, continuous-process operations and delivering predictable, sustainable performance in challenging operating environments. My work is execution-focused and grounded in hands-on plant leadership rather than theoretical consulting.
Areas of demonstrated impact include:
• 8–12% improvement in capacity utilization
• 20–25% reduction in unplanned downtime, achieving sustained uptime above 95%
• 6–10% operating cost reduction through energy optimization and reliability improvement
• 30–40% reduction in LTIs, with zero fatal accidents over extended operating periods
My leadership philosophy is built on discipline, clarity, and ownership, with safety treated as a core value, not a priority of the month. I emphasize robust operating systems, data-driven decision-making, and the development of strong second-line leaders capable of running operations independently.
I bring extensive hands-on experience managing Corex iron making units, beneficiation plants, and pellet plants, including shutdown planning and execution, faster restoration from breakdowns , and crisis management. I work closely with cross-functional teams and contractors to ensure alignment, transparency, and consistent execution on the shop floor.
I currently engage as an independent operations consultant for organizations seeking plant stabilization, operational excellence, safety improvement, and sustainable performance gains. Engagements may be remote advisory, diagnostic reviews, or short on-site assignments, depending on client needs.
