Katie’s role allows flexibility so that she can perform at her best.
“I am not a morning person, so the flexibility of CR Powered by Epiroc is great. There is a fantastic understanding between my manager and me, regarding the negotiation of working hours and working from home.”
A few of Katie’s daily tasks as Product Manager for Surface and Underground Mining consist of market and competitor research, understanding market and commodity trends, reviewing new product ideas, and evaluating their value to the company, especially to our customers and partners across the globe.
Outside of the office, Katie binge-watches Netflix, rides motorcycles, and enjoys painting.
