Abdul Rehman Savant

Said the following about Oliver Dix:

“Oliver Dix joined the Amey Consulting team in the last quarter of 2018. Oliver has been a great addition to the Amey Consulting team in Birmingham. The work Oliver has produced while working for me on a high profile Railway Electrical Power Project has been of a very good standard. He has made the effort to put in extra time to understand the scheme we are working on. Oliver does not shy away from taking a lead in his group of Engineers. He is a very intelligent young Engineer who enjoys what he does and does his work with honesty. Oliver is a unique find, who really makes our time in the office entertaining with his spontaneous phrases or his witty style. Oliver is a very likable person who asks the right questions to ensure he can deliver a design as per the requirements of his mentors and the client. Oliver is one of the first apprentices who has had the opportunity to work on one of the UKs first ETCS Digital Ready Electrical design projects for the north of the country. This design work requires him to come up with innovative ideas and introduce better methods or processes to introduce efficiency in his work. As well as working hard in the office and being so committed to his work, he also takes part in other activities like attending technical seminars, attending DofE, playing in the company cricket team and also organising badminton sessions. Oliver has demonstrated that he can grow to be a well sought professional and an Engineer who any company would want in their team. Oliver really deserves this award and is definitely an Apprentice of the Year 2019.“

He thoroughly deserves this award“

Said the following about Oliver Dix:

“I am nominating Oliver for all of the outstanding work and effort he has put in since joining Amey in 2018. Oliver has progressed significantly since joining Amey and is starting to show signs of being an exceptional E&P Design Engineer. Oliver will soon be applying for the EngTech professional qualification with the Institution of Engineering and Technology, which is a great achievement for someone so early in their career.“
