GETTING TO KNOW YOU
Susie Liddle Technical Administrator
Hi Susie. How long have you been at SELECT? I started as a temp on 1 July and was taken on fulltime in August. I’ve only been here six months but have settled in quickly.
What were you doing before SELECT? Tell us about your background and how you got here. I’ve had a varied employment history. I started out in admin with an agricultural merchant on the south coast before moving to Scotland to work in an IT call centre using my language skills. I’ve been on a technical helpdesk for a pensions and investment firm and also did a long stint in credit control for an IT company. Before I came to SELECT, I worked for National Museums Scotland at the National Museum of Flight in East Lothian – a complete change from IT!
What does your job entail? Tell us a bit more about what you do… I work for the Technical Advisers (TAs) and arrange all their report paperwork. Gathering all the information needed for a
technical assessment enables them to visit Members fully informed, then I process the returned reports. I take Members’ stationery orders and I’m involved in maintaining the UKAS accreditation paperwork. I’ve also been testing the new computer system and it’s been great to help shape the way it will be used to streamline the technical assessment process.
What’s a typical day like for you? Tell us about some of the things you do on an average day... Te first thing I do is put stationery orders in the system and then arrange shipping to Members. Ten I get gather information and produce reports for visits arranged by the TAs. I also liaise with Membership Services if there are any actions that need addressing after a membership assessment.
Do you get the chance to meet SELECT Members? I see Members if they collect stationery orders from SELECT HQ. I’m hoping to go to a Toolbox Talk and meet more then.
QUICKFIRE QUESTIONS:
Cheese or chocolate? Cheese Dog or cat? Dog First car owned? Austin Metro Favourite film? Te Life of Brian Favourite TV show? Dexter
What do you know now that you didn’t before joining SELECT? Did you know much about the electrical industry ? I am amazed at how much SELECT offers Members, all the benefits, advice and training. Tere is so much more going on than I first thought.
Favourite holiday spot? Aviemore Dream date? Five Guys with my girlfriends One thing folk might not know about you? I learned how to windsurf in Germany
What do you find most enjoyable about your job? No two days here are the same – there is always a new challenge.
