1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

Assistant unit operator. I assist the unit operator in running the unit safely, efficiantly and with the best preformance possible. I carry out plant checks and do readings to monitor plant preformance and highlight any potential problems. I communicate with the operator and control engineer to ensure plant issues are comunicated fully.
