10 years’ service and a well-deserved promotion!
Anne Pritchard • March 19, 2021
Marie started with us as a Production Operative 10 years ago with no previous experience in Electronics, yet she showed aptitude and motivation.
She came in recommended by staff members which we always encourage. It’s great to find new recruits with previous industry knowledge and hands-on experience but with the right training and the ability to learn and follow instructions, it shows that successful candidates can grow at Philtronics.
Fast forward 10 years, Marie is one of our most experienced shop floor staff. She has built a great variety of products and shown leadership skills. Her pathway has taken her from Production Operative to Senior and Team Leader, giving her the opportunity to learn, train new staff, take part in continuous improvement and help manage sales throughput taking into account customer expectations and deadlines.
Following the opening of a new Production Supervisor role this month, she put herself forward and demonstrated that she has gained the right skills and experience along the way to step up and support our Production Manager in his day to day role as well as take on more responsibilities.
We currently have a number of vacancies available in Production and there is no doubt Marie is well-equipped to identify applicants with the right experience, ability and determination. Part of her role will include managing the training progress of the new recruits while ensuring consistent quality and sales output. With a growing customer and product portfolio, we are confident Marie will enjoy her new challenge.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank Marie for her contribution over the past 10 years at Philtronics and wish her well in her new role.
Congratulations also to all the other staff members who have recently applied for internal roles and been successful. We would like to wish them all the best of luck in their new jobs, they are all examples of career progression and will help us nurture and develop the next generation of Philtronics employees.
