KUKA success story: Field Service Engineer, David Wardell

I joined Swisslog in April 2020 as Field Service Engineer after working with Swisslog colleagues in a previous role. Since then I have installed multiple cranes at various Swisslog customer sites throughout the UK. It’s a great company to work for I really have made some great friends along the way. I enjoy sharing my experiences and work through LinkedIn, which also helps to generate customer interest. One of my posts on LinkedIn led to the sale of 3 vertical cranes to a new customer!

Swisslog really do invest in training and I have completed an electrical multi-tasking course, management safety course, site safety management course, working at height course and first aid at height course, to name just a few. I enjoy taking in part in the training that Swisslog has on offer to develop my current skills and learn new ones.

I love working as a team and being part of the Swisslog family, Swisslog are a key player in Automation and this is all down to the great team work of everyone who works here. I am excited for the future of Swisslog and it’s great to be part of a successful and growing company.

David Wardell, Field Service Engineer, Swisslog

I’m now involved in training, customer service, conformance and accident investigations. It’s a challenging role, but it’s rewarding, especially since I’m known on site as ‘the man who will always help’!

It’s good to be part of the KUKA group, and I am so thankful for the opportunities my team and the senior managers have given me. Without their faith, training and the shared knowledge, who knows where I would be?
