Granada Glazing strengthens its manufacturing division

Granada Secondary Glazing has further bolstered its manufacturing division following the appointment of three new members of its core production team.

The expansion of the company’s manufacturing division features the creation of three brand-new job roles, designed to increase both output and efficiency in light of sustained, increased demand.  

The first of the newly created positions is that of Production Process Engineer, undertaken by Daniel Millington, who will be responsible for working alongside Granada’s existing design and manufacturing team to assess and develop assembly, process and calibration procedures within the company’s 40,000 sq ft manufacturing facility.

The second new position is that of Factory Supervisor, undertaken by Owen Dernie, who will oversee Granada’s product output and will be responsible for organising both daily and weekly workflow. As part of this new position, Owen will also manage the training and development of both new and existing employees.

The third and final new position is undertaken by Kevin Beales, who joins Granada as Production & Purchasing Scheduling Co-Ordinator. Within the new role, Kevin will be responsible for planning and implementing the company’s production schedule, as well as building successful relationships with customers, suppliers and colleagues alike.

Shelley Dibble, Operations Manager at Granada Secondary Glazing, said she was delighted to welcome the three newcomers: “We’re continually assessing ways in which we can improve and develop our manufacturing output, and the creation of these three new positions forms a key part of our strategy moving forwards. 

“Following a rigorous recruitment process, we’re supremely confident that Daniel, Owen and Kevin – with their wealth of experience – will each prove to be a great success throughout their time at Granada.

“We’ve seen incredibly high levels of demand following the launch of our new product range last summer. We’ve been proactive in our decision making to ensure we keep up with demand and are looking forward to an incredibly successful remainder of 2022 and beyond.”
