James Ilgunas Work Experience Details
  • Ecolutia Services
    Plant Manager
    Ecolutia Services Oct 2018 - Present
    Peterborough, United Kingdom
    As plant manager at Ecolutia, I manage the construction, maintenance and production teams. This includes the planning of all plant related tasks relevant to fulfil our customers orders. In addition to this, I am heavily involved in leading safety and promoting a safe working culture.
  • Ecolutia Services
    Production Manager
    Ecolutia Services May 2010 - Sep 2018
    Peterborough, United Kingdom
    When I started with Ecolutia all we had was an empty warehouse. From the beginning I helped organise the build of the plant with the facilities manager. My input on the build varied from being consulted on the specifications of the equipment I needed for the production plant to actually building some of the internal pipework of the plant. After the plant was built I then had the task of developing the production department in to what it is today. It is a stream lined ion exchange regeneration and water treatment equipment production facility. As production manager I am responsible for the preperation and quality control of equipment supplied to our customers for outsourcing their industrial water treatment needs. In addition to this I run the ion exchange resin regeneration side of the plant. I am also heavily involved in the site's quality and health and safety programs.
  • Ge Water And Process Technologies/Mobile Water
    Regeneration Manager
    Ge Water And Process Technologies/Mobile Water Jan 2009 - May 2010
    Peterborough, United Kingdom
    It was as regeneration plant manager that I truly started my career as a production manager. In this role overall responsibility of ensuring all equipment that left the production department left fit for our customers. To ensure the production department performed as it should I took personal responsibility to ensure all production operatives had the necessary training, work based and safety, and that all quality control procedures were adhered to. I reviewed procedures as and when needed. I would also write and implement new procedures as per necessary and in accordance with our internal quality system.
  • Ge Water And Process Technologies/Mobile Water
    Production Team Leader/Supervisor
    Ge Water And Process Technologies/Mobile Water Jul 2006 - Dec 2008
    Peterborough, United Kingdom
    As the production team leader I started my journey into management. I was given the responsibility of ensuring the company's quality and safety systems were adhered to on the shop floor. This was done by on the job training and supervision of the operators. I lead by example and my goal was to ensure all of customer orders were fulfilled on time, safely and to the required quality.
  • Ecolochem/Ionics/Ge Water And Process Technologies/Mobile Water
    Senior Production Operator
    Ecolochem/Ionics/Ge Water And Process Technologies/Mobile Water Jun 2003 - Jun 2006
    Peterborough, United Kingdom
    After two and half years as a field service representative I returned to the production department as a senior production operator. The tasks included overseeing and training production operators to perform the regeneration of ion exchange resins and quality control checks on the equipment prior to despatch. This equipment included ion exchange containerised tanks, pump skids, electro deionisation and reverse osmosis machinery. Whilst performing this role Ecolochem became Ionics for a short period and then became GE Water And Process Technologies/Mobile Water.
  • Ecolochem
    Field Service Representative
    Ecolochem Jul 2000 - May 2003
    Peterborough Based But Travelled Globally
    At Ecolochem I showed an aptitude for the water treatment industry and was the first non graduate to become one of the company's field service representatives. As a field service representative I had the opportunity of travelling globally to commission and operate the equipment at our customer's facilities. This role gave me a different perspective of the company I worked for. I had always known the importance of quality, but it is not until you are face to face with a customer do you truly realise that the equipment you are providing needs to be able to fulfill the customer's every need.
  • Ecolochem International
    Production Operator
    Ecolochem International Dec 1996 - Jun 2000
    Peterborough
    Ecolochem International was a privately owned company that provided outsourced industrial water treatment solutions for businesses. Here again I started off as a production operator. Unlike the mass production line of UTA, the Ecolochem production operatives would prepare the water treatment equipment that our customers would then rent. The tasks included regeneration of ion exchange resins and performing quality control checks on the equipment prior to despatch. This equipment included ion exchange containerised tanks, pump skids, electro deionisation and reverse osmosis machinery. Although the company's equipment was based on known processes and technologies it had a knack of adapting the equipment to fit any customers requirements. I performed this role for three years.
  • United Technologies Automotive
    Production Operator
    United Technologies Automotive Jan 1993 - Oct 1996
    Peterborough
    I have worked in production all my working life. I started on a production line for a company called United Technologies Automotive, producing car wiring harnesses. This role gave me my first insights into production on a large scale and an introduction into quality control for our customers. I stayed at UTA until they closed down operations in 1996 in Peterborough.
