Derryck considers himself fortunate to have done his HNC level mechanical engineering apprenticeship with the Atomic Energy Research Establishment, which is widely considered to have been one of the best available. Thereafter he worked as a machinist, programmer and designer with a precision engineering company which specialised in components for the Formula 1 and space exploration industries. He joined C2 Composites as Engineering Manager in 2000 and then filled the same role within Rockwood from 2010. He specialises in CNC programming and machining and, with over 40 years’ experience, has unrivalled expertise in problem solving, product design and production support which has led him into Rockwood’s Research and Development Manager role.
