Summary

I have been a qualified marine engineer for the past 11 years and I am now looking for a new career which is land based. Over my previous roles I have built a wealth of experience working with multiple engineering systems, ranging from mechanical and electrical systems to refrigeration equipment. I have proven skills in maintaining safe, efficient and fully operational vessel systems. Experienced in surveying operations, investigating concerns and developing corrective action plans. Excellent scheduling, project management and complex problem-solving skills with diligent and determined approach.
