Iain Grant

I am a highly motivated and hardworking individual, I have demonstrated this by completing an Engineering Maintainance SQVF level 6 within my previous position. I have always had a keen interest in engineering and for this reason I chose to study a BEng Electrical and Mechanical Engineering which I have now completed. I have learnt many new skills and expanded my knowledge base through University and my job.

Each job role I have undertaken has given me skills which are transferrable. I am able to work well within a team but have the ability to work autonomously when required. I work well under pressure and take pride in working to a high standard and completing tasks within a timely manner.
