How do you turn a sprawling conglomerate into a focused value creator with sustained cash returns? I put that question to Simon Pryce, CEO at RS Group Plc and former CEO of BBA Aviation and Ultra Electronics. We focus on his BBA Aviation journey and the move from financial e ngineering to strategic advantage and scale.
In this conversation, you’ll learn how he:
☑️ Created a clear reason for change and involved hundreds across the organisation to build momentum
☑️ Made portfolio choices using risk-adjusted value and reallocated scarce talent to where it mattered most
☑️ Shifted from site P&Ls to a network logic at Signature, standardising service and unlocking scale
☑️ Led with inquisitive challenge, practical implementation and managed risk taking, including raising fresh equity to consolidate the market
🎧 For senior leaders working on transformation, portfolio focus or scale, this discussion connects strategy to execution in plain terms.
