Coming from an engineering background out of University, it was important to me to be able to apply the knowledge gained within a varied workplace that would support my development across a number of skills and, ultimately, towards Chartership. It was clear from the offset that the calibre of projects Taylor Airey was involved with, along with the professionalism and collaborative nature of the team, that the environment Taylor Airey has created would support this development.
So far, I have been involved with a wide range of projects across the rail industry, working directly within client teams, as well as supporting a wider Taylor Airey team on particular projects. This has taken me to various client sites across the UK and Europe, such as rail depots and manufacturing sites, taking the knowledge gained through projects and courses and applying this to real-world applications. The expert team at Taylor Airey has massively helped in my development, both with core consultancy skills as well as with technical project topics, supported by the regular courses the team has encouraged me to attend.
A highlight of my time at Taylor Airey so far has been the recent involvement with a large UK rail project, for which our deliverables received great feedback from the client, as well as from others within the team.
I want a career that constantly challenges me to develop my skills and knowledge. Working in consultancy enables this by presenting a diverse, dynamic environment with new challenges to overcome and knowledge to be gained with each evolving project. The backing of the experienced team at Taylor Airey support my goals, with mentoring and professional development a key focus of the wider team, driven by my own professional needs and aspirations.
