Kieran Dixon

I'm a well experienced candidate who has over 10 years of working experience in Production, Retailing and Logistics environments, my responsibilities ranged from independently working to complete compliance related tasks to overseeing teams of production operators to ensure a safe and productive working environment. My future goal is to specialise within the health and safety sector, potentially within either fire and occupational safety, but my short-term goal is to build on my current knowledge base by completing additional qualifications and working with health and safety professionals in my everyday work. I will be completing a 'NEBOSH Certificate in Fire Safety' in the next 6-12 months as well as applying for my TechIOSH membership.
