Mark MacKinnon
Consultant in Montreal, Québec, Canada
Hailing originally from Halifax, Mark made the move to Montreal nearly 15 years ago and hasn't looked back. Though he misses the ocean... on a daily basis... he has embraced the hustle and bustle of this multilingual metropolis and called it home.
Though his educational roots lie in multimedia design, he has spent a lifetime in the service industry, transitioning from Retail and Restaurants into Call Centers. It was in the call center for Ice.com, a luxury website catering to jewelry fanatics, that he truly found his niche as a Workforce Analyst. Through his work he was able to reduce payroll costs while improving service metrics, literally rebuilding the center from the ground up
In 2012, after 6 years at ICE, Mark moved to Advantage2Retail, a boutique Consulting Firm catering to Retail, eCommerce and Distribution. Here, Mark flourished, configuring and implementing Workforce Management (WFM) and Point of Sale (POS) software for numerous clients.
