Dr Derek Dixon

I began my career as a Maintenance Technician and further developed my industrial experience as an Engineer in the manufacturing sector. This included roles in product design and process engineering. Following this, I spent a number of years in the education sector. This included lecturing, pedagogical development, and department management.

My PhD is in Advanced Maintenance Techniques, specifically the effectiveness of maintenance strategies in the automotive supply chain. I have continued to work with industry for the purpose of research, improvement activities, and exploring commercial opportunities.
