South West Biofuels, (2007)
Dorset
Resulting from a personal interest in the bio-fuel industry, I took it upon myself to find a local producer and supplier of bio-fuels. SWBF, produce and supply bio-fuels mostly produced from waste vegetable oils and rapeseed oil.
My job whilst there, was to identify and develop new business. Using a range of resources from internet research, previous market research done by the company, consults by lecturers at Bath University and information gathered from calling various manufacturers such as Ford, Mercedes-Benz and DAF. My greatest success was creating a lead for SWBF at Bristol International Airport, potentially worth around over £600,000.00 .
Working at SWBF was very enjoyable and enlightening due to the small workforce. This allowed me to spend valuable time with the senior management, discussing both the industry and future plans for the company. I was also privileged enough to escort the MD to Bath University, for a meeting with their top alternative fuels researchers.
