Vincent Mulholland

Engineering Manager @ TEK4

About

I am an ambitious, enthusiastic and determined Engineer who has worked hard to progress from an Apprentice to highly versatile Engineering Manager. During my career so far, I have acquired intimate knowledge of manufacturing processes, programming and applications Engineering, design Engineering and product development. I have also been fortunate to work with many medium and small companies in which my work has overlapped into other areas of a business, such as project management, electrical Engineering, service Engineering and technical sales. Having worked with medium to smaller companies I have a much more well-rounded approach to problem solving in all areas of my profession.
