Personal Statement
After leaving school I earned an engineering apprenticeship doing mechanical
engineering and tasks such as centerless grinding, lap grinding, cnc lathe, bore
grinding and inspection. I carried this out with Slack and Parr LTD. During this
time I learned all basic engineering practices, precision engineering and all that is
involved in making a textile pump.
At 19 years old I decided to join the Royal Navy, motivated by the opportunity of
world class engineering training as an Air Engineering Technician. I was excited
by the challenge of working over-seas in a role in which I could make a real
difference. Whilst working on postings to Afghanistan, Northern Norway and the
U.S.A I learned how to work under pressure in environments where quality of
work and attention to detail are crucial. I also developed a strong sence of team
importance while developing my self strength and technical skills.
Whilst with the Royal Navy I was recognised for my tour of afghanistan and 4
years of excellent conduct. For this, I was given a special commendation in a
bulletin for detecting an aircraft fuel leak with the potential to cause an engine fire
and possible downing of the aircraft.
For personaI reasons, I made the decision to leave the Royal Navy and began
working for Pepsico in Beaumont Leys, Leicester as an Manufacturing
Technician. Here I have learnt man management skills, K.P.Is, 5 S and many
other engineering and manufacturing processes.
I am now looking for an opportunity to expand my knowledge and to challenge
myself further. I am a hard working individual, I take pride in what I do motivated
by being able to contribute to the team. Self responsible, with an excellent
attendance record and time keeping. I actively seek new challenges and take
personal responsibility to learn new skills and competencies.
