Prestwick Circuits Ltd., Irvine, Scotland. 1996 - 1999
Prestwick Circuits was at the time one of the few volume manufacturing sites for printed circuit boards in the UK. It had a very strong automotive background with such customers and Ford, Visteon, Delphi and Siemens.
The reason for leaving Prestwick was primarily due to the belief that with the increasing impact of the Asian supply chains, it was a sensible career move to seek employment within a company whose product offering was sourced through such supply chains.

Interests Interets
Having two young children has curtailed my golfing ambitions although it is something that I manage to enjoy periodically – mainly when visiting parents in Scotland, my parents in law in South-East of France or through customer entertaining. As such the majority of spare time is taken up with my family.
However never one to refuse participation in the annual Group five-a-side tournaments this allows me to ‘manage’ my fitness / health following quitting smoking also supplementing my insufficient time spent in the gym.
Ayant deux jeunes enfants, a reduit mes ambitions de jouer au golf, cependant c’est un sport que j’aime pratiquer periodiquement – principalement lorsque que je visite mes parents en Ecosse, mes beaux-parents dans le Sud-Est de la France ou pendant une visite client. Aussi la majorite de mon temps libre est pris avec ma famille.
Cependant je ne refuse jamais de participer au tournois annuel de football organise par le Goupe, ceci me permet de rester en forme/en bonne sante après avoir arreter de fumer et aussi comble le temps insufisant que je passe a la gym
