What I Do

I work closely with the customer. I serve as a connection between customer’s line and our production plant in UK. My goal is to keep our customers satisfied by ensuring high material quality standards, managing line condition and overall satisfying our customers’ needs. 

A Day In My Life

I haven’t really had time to develop a daily routine yet, as there are always new tasks, issues and challenges which we are facing on daily basis. My days vary a lot, as I have to be flexible. Basically, if the customer is happy, everyone is happy. I guess there is one activity that I do every day at work – troubleshooting. 

My advice

Don’t rely only on your education. I feel like I gained more knowledge, experience and skills during my first year at Nippon Paint than in five years at university.
