• Engineering Apprentice

  • Apr 2014 - Sep 2017

  I moved over to the Engineering side of the company where I was taken on as an Apprentice. Alongside the job role I studied at Solihull College and gained relevant engineering qualifications BTEC NVQ Level 2/ 3. This role required me to work closely with the customer JLR and liaise with different departments to handle a range of issues, find solutions and meet tight deadlines on a daily basis. I had to present information and line trial a significant number of change proposals for the business, which included activities such as resourcing, newly designed or rationalising parts. Show less
