NAME: Jake 

DEPARTMENT: Methods Engineering
COMPANY: Goodwin Steel Castings

The past 18 months in the methods office has really opened my eyes. Having nonstop support from workers with great knowledge and experience making you excel to your full potential has really helped me overcome my challenges. I have learned the principles of Thermal Solidification Analysis using Magmasoft simulation software. I enjoy coming to work and the atmosphere is so friendly.

TRAINER STATEMENT: 

Having developed excellent maths and technical drawing skills at the Goodwin Training School, Jake has excelled in the methods department. He has recently played a big part in modernising the department by getting all previous hard copy methods on to the new digital methods system. This has given him a good understanding of different methods applied to complex castings and made him a valued member of the department.
