TESTIMONIAL
"PNDC commissioned Spirit of Spindrift to lead a grass roots review of our Electrical Safety Rules and Procedures. Jonathan’s expertise in this field, coupled with his strong DNO background, was invaluable throughout the process. His structured approach to completing this work, and an outstanding eye for detail, ensured the best possible outcome was delivered. Jonathan also supported the launch of a new maintenance policy and approach, which again was delivered to a very high standard."
