  • Jan 2018 - Present

  In this customer-facing role my main responsibility is to provide technical and commercial proposals to ensure customer requirements are met. I also produce and control manufacturing drawings (using AutoCAD) for suppliers and for Initial Sample Inspection and am responsible for ensuring any new products are within specification and taking corrective action (raising non-conformances etc.) if required. Although the company is large, my branch has 10 employees so I have gained an in-depth and hands-on experience of all aspects of the business and also get involved in order processing, purchasing, quality and despatch.

  As part of the 'specials' pre-sales team, I assess the customer's requirement (when a standard product isn't suitable) and propose how we will meet the specification. I produce Engineering calculations, layout drawings, and generate accurate costings with clear technical descriptions for a range of worldwide customers. It is important to ensure that the proposal can be delivered by the business. This requires good communication between different parts of the business, backed up by clear documentation. Show less

Scotland Gas Networks

• Network Analyst

  • Aug 2006 - Feb 2007

  I was part of a team which tested and analysed computer models, ensuring accurate decisions could be made about the growth and preservation of the gas pipelines in Scotland. This was achieved by obtaining and collating all available data and revising the models to reflect reality. Logical thought, good communication, and working to deadlines were vital. Maintaining databases also played an important role.

Chalmers University of Technology

• Research Assistant

  • Jan 2005 - Jun 2005

  As part of my Masters Degree I spent six months researching at Chalmers University, Sweden, on behalf of the rock processing division of Sandvik. The work focused on the optimization of the rock-crushing process, and involved extensive modelling using Matlab and Simulink. I adapted to a topic which I initially knew very little about and gained a Grade A for my research. Living in a foreign country taught me to adjust to a different culture and develop my self-sufficiency.
