Employee Spotlights

Juan Portillo, Technical Director, Spain

“I work with my team and external partners such as the government to devel-op and implement procedures for inspecting road vehicles. It is our respon-sibility to foresee and detect vehicle defects and avoid accidents and envi-ronmental damage. Also, as the technology within cars gradually advances, we must come up with new inspection procedures. I genuinely feel that in some way, we save lives, and this inspires me to work harder and better.”
