I starting out at WCE, setting and operating CNC machines and then became a section leader, but from there my career took on a new path when I was asked if I would like to become the Health & Safety & HR Manager. My role is to ensure that the safety of our employees, suppliers and customers, is our number one priority. I’m also responsible for the wellbeing of staff members and assisting them on their continuous professional development.
