Dear Sir or Madam,


I am a fourth year Chemical Engineering MEng student at the University of Edinburgh
currently looking for a 6 month placement starting this summer. The internship will be part
of the 5th year of my degree. Working at Norbord Europe would be a great opportunity to
learn about a wide range of equipment and improve the performance of your Inverness
facility.
Originally, I am from Spain but grew up in Belgium and I am completely fluent in English,
French and Spanish. I really enjoyed working in an international environment during my
work experience at the European Council. Therefore, working at a company like Norbord
which operates in Canada, Scotland, the USA and Belgium appeals to me.
During my year abroad at Queens University in Canada, I was involved in a brewing design
team. We made a few batches of beer using different raw materials. Recording all the details
about each batch allowed us to improve the consistency and flavour of the product.
Moreover, optimizing a small and relatively simple setup by changing the yeast supplier or
adding insulation was a very satisfying experience. Consequently, I am looking forward to
getting familiarised with a larger, more complex process and to investigate and minimise
possible inefficiencies that occur at Norbord Inverness.
Although my knowledge about the equipment used in the manufacturing process of oriented
strand board is limited, I have a strong DIY attitude and enjoy building or repairing small
appliances and furniture. Moreover, my experience as Financial Director of a small start-up
and summer intern at an architecture studio should ease communications with staff with
different expertise such as accountants, operators or project managers.
Working at Norbord Europe would allow me to experience first-hand how a company
develops to meet the rapidly increasing demand for OSB in Europe while retaining its
market-leading position. Additionally, working on a pollution control device, a surface
blender and a dryer would be an excellent opportunity to learn about environmental and
safety measures used in the wood panel industry.
Thank you for taking the time to consider this application and I look forward to hearing from
you in the near future.
Sincerely,

Miguel Granero
