John Hodgson - Trustee

John has over 35 years of retail experience, starting in the food industry (Hintons, Presto and Safeway) followed by a Central Operations Manager position within the Fashion Industry. Since 2019 John has operated his own Retail Consultancy Business (Horizon Productivity Consultancy), with a keen focus on the charity sector.

John’s Management Information Reports have so far been produced for over 12% of the UK’s charity shops. The Labour Hours Model has been designed exclusively for the charity sector and has been developed for charities with just 9 shops up to huge organisations with over 600 outlets.

Away from his consultancy work, John’s time is filled up with a grandson, two Welsh springer spaniels and administering his wife’s dog grooming business.
