Superintendent Assayer, Will Evans, has worked at the Assay Office since 2000 moving from the laboratory through the roles of Process Development Engineer, Systems Development Manager and Technical Manager. Naturally then, technical development, and process improvement have been inherent in his work priorities, and they continue to be his focus. 

Will sees the benefit of this for you as our customer and says “this marks the start of an exciting process, placing IT at the heart of the Goldsmiths' Company. We’ve already streamlined processes which are leading to greater efficiency in how we store many thousands of files for our lasers - hallmarks and fonts.  Equipment and software across five sites is being updated and which will lead to less downtime. I'm really keen to make tangible system improvements which benefit both you and our teams alike."
