The Colt Precision Team

"Marathon Cyclist"

With 20 years’ experience in the medical and aerospace precision engineering sector, Simon can offer tremendous knowledge and first class project management skills. A keen triathlete, Simon competes in Ironman events and has completed trans Scotland and Raid Pyrenean cycle events, always training hard throughout the year. Simon also likes nothing better than spending time with his family.

"Car Encyclopedia"

A Chartered Mechanical Engineer for 22 years, Nick brings much experience and knowledge to Colt Precision including 20 years’ automotive experience at senior level with Nissan and GM in manufacturing engineering, product development and operations management, plus experience in the manufacture of aerospace components and medical instruments. Nick is a self-confessed car “nerd”, always ready with a seemingly insignificant car fact. He also loves a family dog walk and supporting his son's competitive sailing.

"Rugby Fan"

Mike has over 15 years' manufacturing, quality systems, and operational management experience within the medical device industry and during this time, he has successfully delivered a number of key projects with great effectiveness. A keen rugby fan Mike enjoys mountain biking and other outdoor sports with his family.

“Golf Addict”

After 47 years in the engineering industry, Mervyn adds to the huge bank of experience and knowledge at Colt. Starting as an apprentice at Dowtys, he has more recently enjoyed production management roles with key suppliers to aerospace and medical companies. His lengthy experience even includes working on the mighty Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Engineering aside, Mervyn is a self-obsessed golfer and car-racer.

"Determined Boxer"

Glen has worked in engineering for 19 years and loves nothing better than tinkering with anything mechanical – most commonly cars and motorbikes. A lover of foreign holidays that include ample sun and a good beach, his sport is boxing and he is very keen to train regularly and develop his skills. 

“Avid Dog Walker”

Tony is yet another member of our team with ample experience to draw on, having worked extensively in both the medical and aerospace industries. Living locally to the factory, Tony likes nothing better than a long walk with his dogs amongst some of the beautiful surrounding countryside.

"Sun-lover"

At Colt, Kim is kept busy organising our sales and quality systems. We need people like Kim. Away from work, Kim is probably even busier, with a family of three children to look after. Thankfully, she still manages to find some time to sun herself on warm, summer holidays.

"Family Man"

An integral part of our CNC machining team, Bradford will support many projects at Colt. He’s a family man at heart and likes nothing better than some quality time with his loved ones.

“Keen Motorcyclist” 

Part of our busy CNC machining team, Les knows all about speed – and not just from his work! Les likes to get out on his motorbike in his spare time and tour some of the surrounding countryside.

Marek works in our CNC mill section and enjoys being part of the friendly Colt team.

"Water Lover"

Alisdair adores the outdoor world – especially if water's involved. Boats and canoes are a firm favourite. Sticking with the outdoor theme, he is also a fan of al fresco dining; preferably when it’s dry. Oh, and he's a great Post Process Operator when at Colt!
