Introducing Ondřej

Ondřej Daněk

Quality Control Supervisor

Kolín, Czech Republic

My favourite quote:

"A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it."

What I Do

I support production by preparing recipes and helping them to solve abnormalities. I make sure that they get the required quality of input material and I also supervise their products to ensure that the quality meets the specifications.

A Day In My Life

There is still a lot to do with the start-up of a new greenfield factory. So every day is original. The volume of routine work over operational work is gradually increasing. Fortunately, there is still a large amount of varied work that I enjoy and that keeps me at attention.

My advice

Rely on what you learned in school and put it into practice. Constantly expand your horizons beyond your expertise, which will enrich not only you.
