Alec: “Well……it has been quite hectic and very interesting!”

Alec: “It is a return to my engineering routes and hopefully an opportunity to utilise my entire skill-set in a way that previous employments have not.”

Alec:  “To never panic  and to remain calm.  Also the ability to see the big picture and be relentless in pursuit of task resolution.”

EES:  Yes, we’ve certainly found you  pretty “unflappable” in some rather challenging situations lately!  Okay, next question; Where would you like to take the company in 2015?

Alec: “I want to further enhance our client base as well as overall turnover and profitability of the business”
