Bio
David Roeder
Nick worked for us as a student engineer under the Year in industry scheme. I manage the scheme and the placements. Nick proved himself to be an excellent employee whilst with us. We were particularly impressed with :- his determination and attention to detail whilst doing a relatively mundane documentation update task in his early days with us; his ability to learn new technical stuff quickly and apply it to real process problems whilst working with the process engineer; his pleasant demeanour day to day; his excellent interpersonal skills and range of outside interests which made for an all-round rewarding experience working with him during the year.
