People Behind the Product: At the Core of Imaging

Meet Ian Dyson, Executive Officer for Cirdan’s Imaging division based in our Lisburn HQ. Ian joined Cirdan back in 2016 as Production Manager. Ian balances many different projects and responsibilities on a daily basis, providing structure and guidance for various teams, from production to marketing. In doing so, he forms an integral part of systems management which helps Cirdan to accurately plan towards the needs of customers working directly in healthcare environments.

Outside of work, Ian is outgoing and particularly enjoys spending time in the outdoors, be that on long walks with his dogs, spending time with family or enjoying a round or two of golf, when the Lisburn weather permits! He loves to constantly challenge himself and strive for new goals. He has certainly done that in his time at Cirdan!

We caught up with Ian to get a deeper insight into the daily life of the Executive Officer for Imaging, and how Cirdan forms an integral part of his busy life.

What activities does your job involve on a daily basis?

There is a lot of variety in my current role and the activities I do can vary from day to day. I work with all of Cirdan’s imaging products, from x-ray to gross imaging. One day, I can be scheduling orders and shipments of our imaging systems, and providing support to our customers around the world. The next I can be planning ahead for customer servicing, or assisting colleagues across various deptartments with requests for demonstrations, trade shows and conferences!

What is your favourite thing about your job?

There is true variety in the work that I do which I really enjoy. However, I find that working as part of a team which provides our customers with a system or some support which helps them to provide patients with the help they need is what I find most rewarding!

How do you spend your time outside of work?

I like to keep busy when I’m not in the office. Most of my free time is spent in the gym, playing golf, walking my dogs or spending quality time with friends and family. And of course, sneaking in a few Netflix specials along the way!

What are you most passionate about?

I have a lot of big ideas and want to make a difference in the world. I try to be the best I can be, learn from my mistakes, try and make the world a better place by treating others as how I would like to be treated.
