‘We pass our expertise‘

Giuseppe:
‘Improving the assembly process also means developing operators’ skills’

Giuseppe began his career at ETA as an electrical maintenance manager. He is now a project manager in mechanical movement assembly.

‘The extension of the mechanical team allowed me to help develop new machines to support production, and then I had the opportunity to take on more responsibility in order to develop legacy applications. Alongside my passion for watches, I like working for a large company like ETA because it allows me to undertake ambitious projects thanks to the large production volumes.’
