About Paul
Paul leads SaJo Advisors' engagements in turnaround, restructuring, and business continuity. He works with organizations across manufacturing, industrial, and operations-intensive sectors, providing hands-on advisory support to leadership teams facing operational disruption, financial stress, or the need for structural change.
His work encompasses operational assessment and stabilization, supply chain optimization, workforce and organizational restructuring, business continuity planning, and interim operational leadership. Paul brings a practitioner's perspective to every engagement, combining strategic clarity with the operational discipline required to execute under pressure.
Paul partners closely with Samantha McDermott and the SaJo Advisors team to ensure that operational change is supported by clear, aligned communications, a combination that is critical to maintaining stakeholder confidence and organizational momentum through periods of significant transition.
Operational resilience is not built in a crisis. It is built before one.
