Today at MACH24, a group of students had the incredible opportunity to hear from our Managing Director, Martin Mulvey, about the importance of choosing a career in engineering. As he addressed the students, he emphasized the critical role that engineers and toolmakers play in shaping the future of the UK.

Martin began his talk by highlighting the rapid advancements in technology and innovation that are driving the engineering industry forward. He pointed out how engineers are at the forefront of these developments, creating new solutions to complex problems and pushing the boundaries of what is possible. He stressed that choosing a career in engineering offers endless opportunities for growth, creativity, and impact.

However, Martin also brought attention to a concerning trend in the UK – the decline of toolmakers. He explained to the students how toolmakers are essential craftsmen who build and develop the tools for manufacturing. Without skilled toolmakers, the manufacturing industry would struggle to thrive. He emphasized that the UK is increasingly facing a shortage of qualified toolmakers, and it is vital for the younger generation to step up and fill this gap.

Martin shared with the students the importance of preserving the tradition of toolmaking and ensuring that the UK remains a hub of engineering excellence. He encouraged the students to consider a career in toolmaking, highlighting the unique combination of technical skills, creativity, and problem-solving that this profession requires. Mulvey emphasized that becoming a toolmaker is not just a job, but a noble calling that contributes to the backbone of the country's industrial strength.

In conclusion, Martin Mulvey's talk at MACH24 was a powerful reminder of the importance of choosing a career in engineering. He urged the students to consider the impact they could have on the world by pursuing a profession that requires courage, creativity, and commitment. His message resonated with the students, leaving them inspired and motivated to explore the possibilities that await them in the exciting world of engineering.
