Founder and Managing Director, Jonathan has a deep knowledge of metal surface improvement and the precision finishing of engineered parts. He set up Finishing Techniques over 35 years ago and in that time has solved metal finishing problems for manufacturers of simple components through to the highly complex precision parts demanded in aerospace and by F1 teams.
Having established a relationship with OTEC Präzisionsfinish in the 1990’s as Finishing Techniques in the UK, a highlight for Jonathan was forming Otec Inc USA and being acting CEO before handing it on.
Richard has helped solve metal finishing problems and win contracts from companies such as Delphi Diesel Systems, Precious Project, Royal Mint, Goodrich (Bandung) and more. He is very active in pioneering work on the surface polishing of metals in additive manufacturing.
Helping customers make a better quality product is what drives Jamie. He has been integral to setting up and running the sub-contract department within Fintek.
Supremely organised, he ensures the warehouse and ordering system runs smoothly and takes responsibility for keeping the company in line with its ISO and AS certification. He helped the company achieve ISO9001 and is actively pursuing more standards.
Training to be a tool maker, Jason joined the company from school and he has quickly achieved City & Guilds Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Performing Manufacturing Operations.
From the start Jason has made a significant contribution to the company in the sub-contract department, operating the Otec finishing machines and helping customers find the optimum process – machine, media, time – for their finishing needs.
Seeing the transformation of surface finish of the metal parts from the before to after state really enthuses Jason – making him keen to find new processes as part of his training.
