Having developed a high standard of quality awareness working through various roles with a leading vehicle manufacturer, from the production lines to logistics quality, I joined Sevatas in 2010 to deliver effective loss prevention activity for our insurer client and their insured manufacturer. In 2014, my role expanded to focus on providing our range of loss prevention services to all of our clients, as well as leadership of our various inspection and logistics quality teams.
