Jim Berriman

Partner

With 30 years international experience in industry, Jim drives value for clients within the automotive vertical and across the industrial landscape, advising them on discovering, enticing and nurturing leaders that can excel within global markets facing unprecedented challenge and change.

My Story

I started as a graduate within BMW Group and was fortunate to enjoy a varied career within the automotive sector, one that has given me a broad gamut of practical leadership experience, from advisory to strategy through to execution. I’ve worked at Land Rover, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and TVR, so I really understand the pressures and challenges faced by my clients.

Focus

As a Partner within the Industrial Practice at Savannah, my focus is on guiding clients across the automotive and broader industry value chain, supporting them to tackle their leadership conundrums and ensure that they thrive in their increasingly competitive and volatile market environments.

My Motivation

A key theme throughout my professional life has been variety – different organisations, brands, international cultures and market complexities. I have experienced directly the impact of both transformative and more traditional styles of leadership, all within the context of rapid and comprehensive change. Consequently, I believe that businesses can unlock enormous value when the right leadership team is engaged, and that it what drives us all at Savannah.

Why I Like Working at Savannah

It’s energising to work alongside a vivacious and talented team, who genuinely care about their clients – they understand that sustained success can only come with the right focus and professionalism.
