First of all, i would like to thank you for your interest in my professional profile and I invite you to browse all the tabs on this website. Whether the goal is to create a partnership together or share a possible job offer, I remain available for any additional information.
Citizen of the world, I am open to all proposals. France, Europe or Worldwide... my only two criteria for start a new challenge : a challenge is interesting and a possibility of development for me and my future colleagues.
The foundry world is small, do not hesitate to share the address of this CV with your colleagues or various contacts in the world of metallurgy.
Hoping to have the opportunity to work together one day.
Sincerely DUPONT ALEXANDRE
