Saltcoats, Scotland, United Kingdom

About

Electrical / Mechanical Technician with over 20 years’ experience in various multiple electrical working environments from oil and gas to renewable offshore and onshore. I am extremely reliable, hardworking and can work well as part of a team or on my own initiative. I work well under the instructions of others and on a supervisory level. Whilst working in other countries I have passed on my expertise to foreign nationals to give them the confidence and skill-set to do the job at hand. I have experience of full project life cycle, from installation, pre-commissioning and commissioning to final process plant maintenance. A proactive and focused individual who is adept at working to ever changing challenges, with a flair for problem solving. I am continually looking to better myself and I am open to undertake any training to expand my knowledge and qualifications.
