Employment sought

 

Keith Weinberger, WG'01

I am a Wharton Executive MBA '01 graduate conducting a offshore job search for a role in Australia . Over the past 14 years with both Procter & Gamble and Castrol/BP, I have led brands and innovation efforts at multiple levels, companies, and countries, often outside of the corporate support network of both companies, creating comprehensive pipelines of new products, businesses, and claims. My intentions are serious, long planned, and with the full support of my family. After continued and rapid promotions at both P&G and Castrol/BP, most requiring physical moves, I have proven my ability to take on challenging roles with demanding companies and consistently and quickly deliver ahead of expectations. I am reachable by my Australian phone (+61 (3) 9018 5547, please see attached resume for more contact details, and am ready for any flight to meet relevant people should we identify a mutually beneficial opportunity.
