About
A highly skilled and professional individual with a desire to succeed within Manufacturing Operations. Over the past 40 years I have gained a wealth of Operational experience within the Aerospace and Automotive manufacturing industry (Man management, CNC milling, Inspection techniques & high-complexity sub-assemblies). This was gained in both an OEM (Rolls-Royce) & 1st tier supplier (Senior Aerospace Weston).
This has meant working for/with Rolls-Royce, Airbus, Boeing & Spirit AeroSystems. Additionally, in-depth experience working within the nuclear sector manufacturing, coating & assembling leading-edge waste containment solutions to very exacting standards. My strengths lie within hands-on technical ability and an inherent desire to move with technological advances.
I also pride myself on my people's skills from both an internal and external perspective.
