Benjamin Crooks

Recently entered the Chemical Manufacturing industry when I found a job at Weas Engineering in Carmel, IN. While the products are new, my experience with ERP Software has helped me make an immediate difference in Operations. I was part of the beverage industry for 8 years. When I started, I returned inventory from delivery trucks and balanced accounts receivable. Later, I transitioned to Fleet manager where I was responsible for fleet maintenance, driver employment and delivery routing. Lastly, as Operations Analyst, my focus was on improving operational procedures and major projects. Here is where I gained experience in ERP Software using Encompass Technologies beverage based ERP Solution. Before joining the beverage Industry, I had the pleasure of serving my country in the United States Army. While in the Army, I received training on firearms, leadership, diversity, and communication. Those skills were put to the test during my deployment to Kabul, Afghanistan. I conducted over 300 patrols around the high-threat city, providing security for members of the NATO Training Mission-Afghanistan command team. I planned and briefed routes, threats, and emergency procedures to security teams and its VIPS.
