My early professional career was as a sea-going marine engineer serving onboard refrigerated cargo vessels.
Later, I passed over to crude oil tankers. I served a total of about 13 years as an engineer officer.I moved to a shore-side career in 1998 when I entered what was then Astilleros Españoles, in their Cádiz repair facility. I have been there ever since. We are now known to everyone as Navantia. In Navantia I have passed through several different departments gaining experience in the Production, Estimation & Billing and finally the Commercial Department. I have occupied my present position as Commercial Manager for about 3 years now.I have been heavily involved with our program of Cruise Ship repair and refit since we started focussing our efforts in this direction some 11 years ago.
