AESSEAL wins recognition at awards event for developing their employees

ROTHERHAM-BASED AESSEAL has won national recognition at this year’s EEF Future Manufacturing Awards.

The manufacturer, which specialises in the design and manufacture of mechanical seals and support systems, won the Developing Future Talent award, sponsored by Randstad Inhouse Services.

The award recognises the manufacturer that has done the most across the country to build skills, talent and develop their employees internally and promote engineering and manufacturing careers through activities within the community.

It was selected by a panel of judges drawn from business leaders, industry experts and academics with expertise in the manufacturing sector.

Judges said: “This company demonstrated a multi-faceted approach to developing young talent within the sector.

“This included a schools outreach programme, an awardwinning manufacturing apprenticeship programme, support for initiatives to attract and support women in engineering, and a dedicated team including a member of the Enterprise Adviser Network, Prince’s Trust Mosaic Mentors and apprentice ambassadors.”

Michael Rich, test house manager at AESSEAL, said: “This award is testament to our hard working and dedicated team, and we are delighted to have won.

“We put a lot of work into developing our people and to be recognised for this is magnificent.

“I am thrilled that we have former apprentices here with me tonight celebrating this award.”
