Dec 1993 - Mar 1998
My engineer experience was used to provide technical solutions to customers, adapting a full mechanical product range. Big key account management, sales negociations and technical solutions implementation was a great part of the challenge. This function gives me the technical knowledge of a wide range of standard mechanical products, and develops the sense of "solution for Customers".
