Hello listener, in this episode of our skills and people series we take two trips to two UK manufacturing factories. Find out why the people culture is so ingrained at Sheffield based manufacturer, Gripple, as we speak with Katrina Richie, People and Culture Director and Marcie Rowbotham, Head of Learning and Development.
We also pay a visit to Origin in High Wycombe, a family run company that shares the same ethos of people being the company's biggest asset. This trip took us to High Wycombe where we met Founder & COO Victoria Brocklesbury.
Both these manufacturers were recognised for excellence in last year's TMMX Awards during Digital Manufacturing Week.
In between these two factory visits, we feature The Manufacturer's Nikhil Kumar. Currently working with us in Digital Operations Delivery, Nikhil did a degree in engineering, and explains how this experience gave him the skills to explore different opportunities.
That's all to come in episode four of this series.
