For the last 28+ years I have been working in a number of Technical roles :- Initially I worked as a Domestic Appliance and Electronics Service Engineer, I then took a job as a Security Service and Installation Engineer where I worked for 12 years. This role covered a number of disciplines including, Alarms, Access Control, CCTV, Gates and Barriers. I also needed to be skilful in numerous DIY skil
ls and proficient in the use of Power tools, Hand tools and Ladders. I then worked for 14 years in Law Enforcement for both Local Authority and Home Office, as a Senior Technical Officer. This role needed me to call upon my previous experience in the security business and to learn and become competent in numerous other areas of technology and workshop skills. Some of my areas of expertise are: Qualified Electrician, Qualified Computer Aided Designer (CAD), Qualified in Computers and Networking, Reverse Engineering Skills, Woodworking, Metalworking, Welding, Computer Aided Machining (CAM), Vinyl Printing, Adobe Illustrator, 3D printing, Rapid Prototyping (Additive and Subtractive), Laser etching and cutting. This list is not exhaustive!! As a Senior Technical Officer I was employed for my Integrity, Ingenuity, Problem Solving Ability and communication Skills. I hold an IOSH certificate in Managing Health and Safety, I am roof safety and height safety trained. I am even a IPAF Qualified MEWP driver, (Mobile Elevated Working Platform). Cherrypicker to you and me!! So..... If you have any task, or something needs fixing, new parts made, that are no longer available, no matter how small or trivial.......... Just Ask!! I'm not saying I have the answer to everything or that I can solve every problem, or fix everything, but, there is no harm in asking!! REMEMBER .......... 'Any task - JUST ASK'
