I graduated in Electronics and Management from Middlesex University and joined ASSA Ltd in the UK, back in May 1994 as a Technical Assistant.
Working through various roles within the technical department for Opening Solutions, supporting both mechanical and access controls products, whilst working towards my Guild of Architectural Ironmongery (GAI) Diploma qualification which I gained in June of 2000. In 2000 I was then given the responsibility of Assistant Technical Manager and subsequently in 2002 I took up the role of Technical Manager.
Around 2012 the business units ASSA and Union were merged’ to form ASSA ABLOY Security Solutions, with my role changing to Category Product Manager looking after Electromechanical products including CLIQ.
I was then given the opportunity to progress across divisions and made the move from Opening Solutions to Global solutions to take on my current role of Special Projects Manager for Marine. A few examples of my recent CLIQ projects were The Ritz Hotel London, National Portrait Gallery, and Spirit NCLH.
