Summary

Currently a cell/team leader so as well as my own work I oversee the work of others. That could be anything from checking their work, explaining/teaching the correct procedure in order to work better in the future. I'm also 1 of 3 first aid trained on the shop floor, qualified in mental health awareness and trusted to be a key holder with the responsibility of opening the factory on a daily basis.

I'm also trained to run the CNC whenever needed, this is usually to cover holidays or sickness.

I now feel that I've no room to grow where I presently work and I'm looking for a new challenge. I'm a very hard worker with a can do attitude, punctual, polite and always happy to help in any way possible.

Running, Gym and Golf

Outside of work I enjoy my fitness. Running 2-3 times a week and hitting the gym as well as golfing with friends on a weekend.

But the thing I really look forward to the most is spending quality family time with my wife and daughter.
