I specialise in Access/Excel/VBA - but I'm trained as a designer (arch) and my background was in university and government admin, which is how I got into IT - automating menial tasks. Hate it - well the large group-think departments I have to work with. I'm thinking of going back into solo design and manufacturing (timber small scale furnishings), oh, I've been a solo designer/maker ... and a Cannondale MTB mechanic .... and bicycle courier ... and ....

Niche construction - despite the recession, We've never had it so good!! We do a lot of 'sustainable' buildings & biomass/solar heating installations.

Job
 

These days I work as a part time parts person in a Motorcycle shop but I was a Project Manager/Process Engineer in the Super Yacht Industry. Started out in 1976 as a Cabinetmaker and moved into boatbuilding in or around 1980. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaay to stressful though. Rather play with bikes.
Last Project before getting out was "MY Amadeus"

demolition project engineer and commercial diver - in the nuclear industry !

I'm a netmaker! Which is why my Teneere is a bit on the old side. But love the excuse to ride it there every day

What's my line????
 

I've worked for a major UK Telecomms company for over 30 years. I have been an exchange builder, back in the last days of Strowger, a diagnostic technicain, field engineer, asbestos recoveries and general building works clerk of works, small works planner, facilities engineer at a 1200 seat call centre, commercial relationship manager and now I'm a special projects manager.
I project manage short to medium term projects currently including deployment of permanently installed fall arrest systems on the high radio tower estate and the annual towers painting project.
I have an office in a small room at home and only visit the main office once a week for people management duties of a small team of draughtsmen.
Occaisionally I get out on site to resolve problems, devise solutions and monitor quality.
I moved to Scotland because most of our towers are up here. Usually a drive to a tower involves anything from a few hundred yards to several miles of poorly surfaced tarmac or gravel road - which is why I have a land Rover Freelander as my daily drive. The bike isn't insured for more than commuting to one regular location (so that'll be the glasgow office) and anyway, to climb a tower I need to carry about 30lbs of PPE....although I have on odd occaisions used the bike in the summer if I'm going to an easy site.
There are a few towers where there is no road, so that'll be a walk in or exceptionally a helicopter.
