Your Team

The ME Team is a relatively small group of 13 individuals (8 Norwich / 5 Berlin) with a blend of knowledge and skills, encompassed through a range of ages and nationalities.

Being part of the wider European team, we meet weekly to track and discuss issues on other sites to see ways in which we can help each other leverage our skill sets more effectively.

Engaging in fun activities including most recently the Fortive Innovations Day competition to showcase a bench test automation solution the ME apprentices are working on. We got through to the final competing against 47 other Fortive competitors. As a team, we built a Soap Box in the design of a handheld multimeter and entered the Sheringham Soap Box race. Great fun.
