Profile
Professional and capable Mechanical Fitter with experience covering a vast range of industries mostly
associated with the Oil & Gas and sectors. I completed my Engineering apprenticeship with Clydeunion
Pumps (Formerly Weirs pumps) in 2013 and have worked there using my trade ever since. I build, strip,
inspect and test a wide variety of pumps and components which are relevant to the different engineering
projects im working on daily. I regularly have to meet targets and deadlines set by both the company and
the customer whilst constantly meeting quality standards of such a technically demanding environment. I
am very enthusiastic and mechanically sound minded with a keen attitude towards engineering. I am
confident enough to approach any job large or small and am constantly seeking to learn new skills to add
to the wide range i have already developed through School, College, my apprenticeship and time on site
at Clydeunion Pumps.
