Summary

I have recently finished my job as an Engineering Technician Weapons Engineer Communications Specialist in the Royal Navy after doing 4 years. The Navy has taught me a various amount of skills, from my role as an Engineer to First aid and firefighting. This has been my one and only job since I left school and now I believe I am ready for something else. I am a hard worker who can still preform a task at a high level of standard while under-pressure. Always ready to take on a new challenge whether that be something I am comfortable with or if it be out of my comfort zone. Hardworking product testing professional with extensive experience delivering quality, conformant products to specifications. Grades and classifies products accurately with meticulous attention to manufacturing requirements. Collaborates with team members for outstanding productivity levels.
