Top Insider Advice

Never be afraid to ask a question, no matter how silly it may be. Someone may want to know the answer as well. This goes part-in-parcel with listening, it is easy to hear someone but to listen and absorb the information and if you don’t understand then ask them to explain more. People will respect you more if you are engaging with them and ask for more information if you don’t understand.

What do you like about your job and the company?

What motivates me the most is that I love my job. I’m passionate about what I do and what I want to accomplish and constantly want to challenge myself and be the best Engineering Technician and ensure I absorb as much information that I can. I always want to better myself and my abilities and identify areas of improvement so that I can always be consistent and learn from my mistakes.

Greatest achievements

My greatest achievement to date is to have won the Food Manufacturer Excellence Awards – ‘Apprentice of the Year’ and be a finalist for the Food and Drink Federation – ‘Rising Star Award’ and Young Engineer of the Year. It fills me with pride to know that not only my achievements have been recognized within the company but also externally and making it to the finals is a huge accomplishment.

Everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and valued — not just once they’re in the role, but throughout the hiring journey. Creating a truly inclusive workplace starts at the first touchpoint — the candidate experience matters more than ever. Diversity doesn’t end at hiring — it’s about building cultures where people from all backgrounds can thrive. Representation opens doors, but inclusion keeps people in the room. Treat every candidate like a future colleague — because they might just be. The best talent won’t always follow a traditional path — be ready to see potential, not just paper. Hiring isn’t just about filling roles — it’s about shaping culture.

Its important to have a career plan, break it down into chunks e.g. next 12 months, 2-5 years then 5 years plus. Make the right people aware of this plan. After all how can the leadership team support you if they dont know your aspirations? Then its important to understand what skills are needed to make the next move. Breadth moves are very usefully as it expands your overall knowledge which ultimately helps with career development. With all this in mind its also important to be flexible and adaptable. Seek out advice from senior peers who would have probably been in a similar situation in the past.
