“Since we moved to Sundon Park, clients have been impressed with the 18,000 sqft open plan workspace and 20tonne lifting capacity to help repair large machinery.
“We’ve recently retired employees David Hills and Roger Wilson with 48 and 50 years service at Shoolbred Works.”
Mike is currently looking for: apprentice mechanical/electrical fitters, electric motor and pump fitters, and general electrical/ mechanical workshop fitters.
