Personal Statement
I have been in employment since 1998. Three years ago I had a serious accident and broke my
hip in a fall. I am now completely recovered and am seeking employment. My previous posts
have been in supervisory roles in manufacturing industry.
My experience covers various roles including quality assurance, laboratory work, environmental,
engineering and production. I also have experience as a technical sales manager.
I feel that the mix of roles has given me a good understanding of the manufacturing process,
including environmental issues. Within these roles I have attended management meetings and
completed my training as an ISO auditor. I have also gained qualifications by various short term
courses.
I also have experience in the sales environment. This has made me appreciate the importance of
the link between manufacturing and sales.
As can be seen from my employment record, I am adaptable and have enjoyed working in
various positions with different roles and responsibilities.
