During my apprenticeship, I developed a solid foundation in technical skills and problem solving, laying the foundations for my future roles. After completing my apprenticeship, I transitioned into the role of SIA (Supplier Technical Assistance) Engineer. In this position, I was responsible for ensuring that suppliers met quality standards and adhered to technical specifications.

I worked closely with suppliers to identify and resolve issues, improving production efficiency and maintaining high product quality. With my growing expertise in supplier management and engineering processes, I progressed into the role of Buyer in the procurement department. This new position allowed me to combine my technical knowledge with commercial skills, negotiating contracts, managing supplier relationships, and ensuring cost-effectiveness while maintaining quality standards. Building on my diverse experience across engineering, supplier management, and procurement, I recently advanced into the position of Project Manager, taking on greater responsibility of overseeing complex business projects through to completion.

Alongside my apprenticeship and early career development I pursued further education and completed a degree in engineering, achieving First Class Honours, balancing both academic and professional commitments to further deepen business expertise.
