New roles for long-serving staff

Trade only producer of fabricated signage, SignFab, has made new appointments within the company.

With a strong ethos for promoting from within, the company is delighted with its latest four promotions given to Shaun Laing, Ashley Hall, Alex Wood, and Mike Holland.

Laing and Hall have both advanced from production planning into production management roles, while Wood and Holland have progressed from departmental supervisors to works managers across two sites.

Bringing a combined 37 years of service to SignFab, Wood and Holland will cover both the Scudamore and Byford Road sites respectively.

Managing director, Paul Bartholomew comments: “The promotions given were due to the hard work and commitment that the staff members offer to SignFab.

“Shaun and Ashley have developed their skill sets brilliantly during their length of service with us and are now chomping at the bit to add more variety to their day-to-day roles”.

Regarding his appointment, Wood says: “What a great opportunity to step up to the next level, bringing skills and ideas used from running the Assembly Department. Our goal is to bring a fluid, organised working link between the two factories.”

Holland shares Wood’s happiness, adding: “I feel privileged to have been given the opportunity to progress my career further and hope to aid the continuous success by improving quality and consistency across all departments”.

Providing 65,000sqft of fabrication capacity and offering a complete and comprehensive manufacturing service, SignFab supplies a variety of letters, logos, totems, panels, and lighting for sign companies throughout the UK.

Originally starting with 13 staff, and now employing around 150, Batholomew concludes: “My fellow directors and I wish the new managers all the very best and success in their new roles.”
