Former test technician looking for work in the Guildford/Woking area – previously spent 12 years with a company making high current/high voltage magnetic media erasers and a range of PC-based automated robotic CD/DVD disc duplicators and printers; worked up from shop floor assembly through technical support and servicing to senior test technician. Prior to that I was an apprentice with BAe Systems, working on Harriers.

Currently working as a service co-ordinator but realising that organisational/office work doesn’t suit me – I’d much rather be tinkering with stuff with a screwdriver in my hand!

Anyone know of anything that might suit? Can start immediately.

Cheers!

You might want to consider changing your username?

I can't help much further but I always used to drive past Vision Engineering near Send who may be worth a speculative application.

Good point re. username! It actually comes from a clothing company years ago, but I see how it could be seen...

Cheers for the heads up ref. Vision Engineering.

Frik - thanks for the link. I actually have a friend working at McLaren who sent me that as well, and have applied for one of the positions listed.

Jane - thanks for the reply, I've emailed my current CV.

Anything else going? Been shooting off my CV to every agency and local technical company I can think of but nothing concrete as yet...

Did you ever find anything? I've heard of something on the grapevine that may be of interest.

Thankfully I did - working as a service/calibration tech for a company that makes ultrasonic NDT scanners smile

Have a techy mate who's potentially looking though, any chance you can send me the details?

Cheers!
