Rob Day’s Progression Story
Where did my professional journey begin?
Before joining igus® I worked at Applied Sweepers on the production line making road sweepers. After this, I joined Alexander Dennis again, working on the production line building coaches. Unfortunately, I got made redundant from Alexander Dennis and decided to set-up my own car wash business.
I really enjoyed running my own business but missed the engineering side of my work life. So, I decided to sell up and look for a role that could combine both my business and engineering passion. This led me to igus®. I had seen a position advertised on Indeed and applied straight away.
My igus® career
Shortly after applying for the position of Scotland’s Sales Engineer, I got an interview and was offered the job. Adapting to life at igus® was good as everyone was very supportive, especially in my second week of employment when my twins arrived 2 months early.
Through my 6 years at igus®, I have grown as a person and in my career. igus® has allowed me to further my education in engineering as well as looking after my area in Scotland. I have recently progressed into a Product Specialist role, so I am able to share my knowledge on moulded gears with customers and help support other sales engineers around the country.
What Rob Day likes about igus?
“I like the fact that the range of projects and applications that we are involved in are so diverse, from subsea applications to medical device applications. This keeps the working day very interesting.”
