I’m passionate about achieving net zero manufacturing using metal additive manufacturing, helping to deliver cost and value benefits for our customers’ products
My organisation
About me
20 years+ working within manufacturing companies supplying service into sectors such as Aerospace, defence & Space, industrial equipment (semi-conductors) and Energy. The last 8 years have been dedicated to the commercialisation of metal Additive manufacturing, helping customers find opportunities to improve performance, reduce cost or lead-times with quicker development cycles thanks for the process agility.
I started my career through a mechanical engineering apprenticeship and latterly moved into commercial and programme positions.
I sit on the senior leadership team at 3T Additive Manufacturing’s and have responsibility for delivering the commercial strategy, which has supported the business transformation in the last 3 years since it was acquired by the Beamit Group.
My organisation
At 3T Additive Manufacturing we are on a mission to achieve net-zero manufacturing by 2032, whilst proving that sustainability does not come at a premium price.
3T Additive manufacturing LTD is a UK based advanced manufacturing company specialising in metal additive manufacturing. We uniquely offer the complete value chain in-house, combining additive and subtractive processes in a single digital thread to create finished components for our partners.
Since the acquisition by the Beamit Group in 2021, we have successfully executed phase 1 of our business plan. This milestone has propelled us to series production and we proudly delivered over 10,000 parts to our strategic partners in 2023.
Operating as an SME service provider, we prioritise cost-effectiveness, uncompromised quality and timely delivery, while maintaining a clear focus on realising our vision for net-zero manufacturing.
Our culture is the backbone for our success. We operate as one cohesive team, with a clear unified direction to achieve our mission. This culture extends beyond our factory and into our valued partners, reliable suppliers and expansive networks. We’re not content with just achieving our mission, we want to ignite an industry-wide change. By fostering open innovation and thought leadership, we’re sparking a movement towards net zero.
