About Simon
I’m a fully indentured EITB Apprentice serving my time as a Precision Engineer within the Machine Tool Industry, I went on to complete a degree in Design and Technology with Education at Brunel University and a Masters in Advanced Manufacturing at Cranfield University.
I have always enjoyed learning so pushed myself to become a Chartered Engineer with the IET and also with the CIPD. Working on executive level appointments I have taken a keen interest in management and leadership and love reading books and attending conferences around this subject.
