During John's time working for CMB he was a well respected member of his team. He was one to push himself and wanted to get stuck into any new challenge. I wish John the best of luck in his next job role.

David Beaver

John is a very skilled and knowledgeable engineer with years of experience yet isn't afraid to ask questions if unsure of the task in hand. He can be relied upon as an individual and also as part of a team. His knowledge is such that he was often tasked with mentoring apprentices. All in all a very likeable character with a pleasant disposition. I would have no qualms in recommending John to any future prospective employer.
