MEET THE HIRING MANAGER

What’s a fun fact about you?

Since I used to work as a farmer, my first job involved shoveling manure into a wheelbarrow after the cows had been through the milking parlor. This was a unique task, aiming to avoid spreading it around the yard.

I also have a background in amateur racing, participating in one-make championships at circuits across the country. Among my favorite tracks are Anglesy in Wales and Oulton Park in England. One memorable race stands out –at Oulton Park where, despite starting lower on the grid due to a poor qualifying session, I worked my way through the field in pouring rain to secure a second-place finish. I was closing in on the lead, but unfortunately, the laps ran out before I could overtake.

What do you like doing in your spare time?

I enjoy walking in the countryside, riding my motorbike, spending time with my family, and to traveling around a bit. I also like tinkering with things like doing DIY. I restored my own tractor, stripping it to the sum of its parts and rebuilding it over four years.
