meet our people

The best part of my job is getting stuck into the practical testing of new products and ensuring they perform as intended. It normally gets me out on the water, and I get a real feel for customer design requirement to ensure we have the best products on the market.

I joined Survitec just over 23 years ago as a sewing machinist. During my time with the company, I have held various roles including training machinists - both in the UK and overseas. Getting visit so many different places to train my colleagues is a perk of the job. 

The best thing about working at Survitec though has to be the people. I love being part of a team and working with colleagues that have a great attitude to the job at hand (which my team members do). I also love seeing a product go through the manufacturing process, from start to finish, at such a high standard. The icing on the cake is then of course seeing the end product going out to the customer.

I have been with Survitec for over 20 years.  As the Senior Personal Assistant to the SEA Managing Director, my role includes supporting the regional team, organising local conferences, exhibitions and tours, preparing internal memos and forms and managing the local team’s calendars for new meetings and appointments. 

I was attracted to the role because of a variety of reasons, including the location and the job scope. I’ve had many memorable experiences in my last two decades here but working with my team and meeting colleagues from across the business has been a consistent highlight. We work hard, play hard and work as a team. 20 years later, I can say that it’s still a lot of fun.
