From my experience, the quality of engineers and designers at Simon Carves is unparalleled within the industry and it has been my great pleasure and privilege to work alongside such an amazing team throughout my career. This job has afforded me many opportunities to travel and work in fantastic locations around the world, including assignments to India, Trinidad, and across Europe, and I’ve been incredibly proud to work on numerous pioneering projects across multiple engineering sectors, especially LDPE and EVA.
