Plate 1 Mike Harvey

With 10 years experience in project and business management for blue-chip and advanced technology companies, and in particular in demanding military and medical applications, Mike Harvey is well suited to his new role in Jaltek, where he will be responsible for the management of customer projects, from enquiry processing to order completion (Plate 1).

Harvey has a wealth of experience in demanding design, manufacturing and project management environments, all of which will be invaluable to him and Jaltek's clients in his new role. As he points out, “Through effective communication and proactive product engineering, it is possible to reduce product costs significantly while growing customer expectations”.

Sales Director Steve Pittom is delighted to have Harvey on board: “Mike has an impressive track record in the design, development and introduction of new products and processes in electronics manufacturing environments, product cost reduction, supply chain management, cross- and multi-site management, and a host of other skills that range from marketing to finance. This, combined with his skill in working with clients, negotiating with suppliers and motivating his colleagues, will ensure that we optimise the quality and flow of projects through our front end and manufacturing processes”.
