Christian Lagao

Career changer for rail & driving · 20+ years in medical technology (nuclear medicine)

Profile

Reliable, meticulous medical technologist with more than 20 years of experience, including over 15 years as senior nuclear medicine technologist (PET/CT) in Singapore. Used to strict safety rules, radiation protection and the careful handling of radioactive materials; I work precisely, punctually and by established procedures.

To be closer to my family, I have deliberately chosen a new career start in Germany. I am looking for a long-term, stable position in rail, driving or transport – ideally with paid retraining. Shift work, weekends and assignments across Germany are no problem for me.
