I took on the role of CNC operations during a transitional staffing phase, despite a lack of prior experience, and subsequently facilitated the onboarding of a replacement team member.
I throughly enjoyed the interaction with workshop staff, observing and being hands-on with manufacturing operations.
Working closely with the production manager to develop efficient manufacturing solutions for complex and time-sensitive projects, aiming to optimise both time and cost factors.
