I have worked as an industrial electrician for 11 years, working mainly with high voltage 3 phase equipment. I have a wide range of skills in the installation of electrical components ranging from motors to high voltage distribution panels. In my current position I have also gained good knowledge of the testing and inspection of new and old installations.

I have previous offshore experience in the periodic inspection of various rigs, varying from a short spell in the Middle East to a longer spell in Asia. In my roles offshore I completed inspections of EEx equipment and stored data from my findings. These were short term contracts but I am now looking for a more permanent opportunity to further my career in the offshore oil and gas industry.
