    My career 35 years back started out in machine manufacturing wiring up printing presses and associated folding machinery. That is where I learnt to be a tidy electrician. I then spent a few years in the construction industry. That is where I learnt about the dangers of electricity on construction sites.

     

    The bulk of my career has been in maintenance and engineering where the practical skills have started to take second place to the theoretical requirements of the job. I guess I am classified more as a process industry rather than manufacturing a material object. Whilst we cover overall maintenance, the facilities and infrastructure tend to be a smaller part of the job requirements.

     

    Kind regards
