I have worked in the Electronic Manufacturing Industry since leaving University, working for various companies ranging from start-ups to multi-Nationals, with varied roles in Design, Production Engineering and Operational Management to Director Level.
For the last 32 years, I have been working in the Contract Electronic Manufacturing Industry and my last role prior to founding Ampthill EMS was as Director of Engineering at AsteelFlash in Bedford, (formerly MRP Electronics).
Upon leaving AsteelFlash I could see that there was a serious hole in the market for offering a personal and responsive service for those Customers requiring a quality fast turnaround service at a sensible price. I decided to use the considerable knowledge and experience that I had built up to fill that hole and started Ampthill EMS.
