PROFILE
A creative, driven and flexible mechanical engineer with excellent problem solving skills, time management and careful attention to
detail. I am a recent graduate with a 2:2 Honours (Lower Second Class Division) bachelor of Mechanical Engineering degree from
the University of Leicester. Currently seeking a challenging graduate engineering role where I can apply my competence and utilise
the extensive theoretical and practical skills acquired from within academia and industry work.
I thrive on overcoming challenges using my forward-thinking approach, natural ingenuity and pragmatism to quickly analyse the
nature of the problem and think creatively. I am self-motivated and possess demonstrable communication skills along with the
ability to work as part of a team and individually and to organise work activities to meet deadlines. I am able to concentrate for a
long period of time in order to achieve the standard required in today’s competitive workplace.
I have extensive experience of process improvement, production control and the utilisation of hand and power tools.
With articulate communication skills, and significant practical knowledge of developing and implementing processes through lean
manufacturing and driving continuous improvement projects, I possess a keen interest in polythene industry, aerospace
engineering principles and practices that surround the mechanical, oil and gas industries as well as rail sector. I would welcome the
opportunity to add value to a business operating in these areas.
KEY ACHIEVEMENTS
• I played a major role in a continuous improvement project that effectively reduced waste and was cost effective. The
project met customers’ satisfactions and addressed inefficiency by reducing setup times and arrears and maximising
efficiency.
• I implemented best practices and standard operating procedures including 5S and HSE to ensure everyone was working
to the same standard and was compliant with the company policy. This helped improve efficiency and productivity.
• During my second year degree project based on UAVs, I was appointed head of all mechanical aspects. The project
encompassed the design and build of an unmanned aerial vehicle and subsequent control of its flight. As head of
mechanical engineering I was responsible for increasing the UAV stability working on AutoCAD and LabVIEW and using
strategic aerodynamic methods. These methods resulted in higher performance, lower power consumption and an overall
20% cost reduction during the assembly stage.
EDUCATION
BEng Mechanical Engineering (2:2 – achieved) September 2010 – June 2013
University of Leicester
Modules include:
Dynamics of Mechanical Systems Electrical and Electronics Engineering Heat and Fluid Flow
Failure Mechanisms and Tribology Thermodynamics and Fluid Dynamics Systems Engineering
Processing of Engineering Materials Properties of Materials Computer Aided Design
Mechanics of Structures Components Signal and System Control Business Management
Electrical and Electronics Engineering
Final year project and research interests:
I selected a project on sintering process of ceramics due to my interest in the practical applications of materials and
engineering software to improve the performance and understanding of materials and engineering programming. The main
areas of researched encompassed: background of ceramics, sintering process, mechanisms and driving force of sintering
processes, methodology of modelling sintering and the use of Fortran PC (software). The project result was satisfactory as
I achieved 67%.
