In addition to these senior positions, Arburg Ltd. has recruited two additional apprentices this year, making three apprentices in total: Vincent Marimanzi and Thomas Ward join Joe McKenna to begin their journey learning about the injection moulding industry. Further to this, we have also invested in two young recruits to focus on calibration and service specifically. Matthew Griffiths and Harvey Young were appointed as trainee calibration and service engineers in December and are completing 12-weeks’ beginners’ training in Lossburg.
All ARBURG service technicians worldwide must complete a 12-week induction course in Germany.
“Change is a constant, but we have seen a lot of change in the last 12-months and we say goodbye to some colleagues who have given amazing service to Arburg,” says managing director Colin Tirel, himself approaching 25-years’ service.
“A big thank you from me personally to Robin and Roger for all their hard work for Arburg; our best wishes for your hard-earned retirements – enjoy the rest! We are all devastated to lose Simon last year after a brave battle with cancer, his contribution to the company and customer base was immeasurable. We are delighted to welcome Nicolas to fill this essential role; I’m confident he has the right attributes and he has made an excellent start. Well done to Alex, Gavin, and Stuart for taking on their new jobs, earned on merit, and I am really pleased to welcome Vince, Thomas, Matthew and Harvey. This shows Arburg invests in the future, and their ideas and energy will help us greatly and keep our brand young and forward-thinking.
Colin added, “We are continuing to build a very strong team now that can give our customers, established and new, a 6-star professional service from people who know the products and systems technically and have high standards. We all look forward to working with you.”
