Easter raffle raises £450 for charity

/in , ,

Warren’s Easter raffle was a great success this year, bringing colleagues together for a good cause and raising an impressive £450 for the British Heart Foundation.

The raffle saw strong support from across the business, with plenty of ticket sales and a good range of prizes up for grabs. A full list of winners was shared on the day, rounding off what was a positive and well-supported event.

A big thank you goes to everyone who bought tickets and helped make the raffle such a success, as well as to those who kindly donated prizes. Contributions like these play an important part in supporting charities that make a real difference.

Charlotte Celebrating 10 years at Warren

/in ,

We’re delighted to celebrate a special milestone for Charlotte Seymour, who recently marked 10 years with Warren.

Charlotte joined the business in 2016 after leaving university, starting her career with us as an Administrator within the Finance team, reporting to Becky Mason. Her ability and dedication were quickly recognised and within her first year she progressed to become a Planning Administrator before advancing to her current role of Senior Planner in 2019.

During her time in the Orders department, Charlotte has played an important role in supporting and developing others. She has trained several members of the team, many of whom still work within the business today and have progressed into new roles of their own.

Charlotte is widely known across Warren for her impressive analytical skills and problem-solving ability. With a strong grasp of Excel and other analytical tools, she has a talent for working through complex queries and identifying practical solutions. Combined with her decade of experience within the company, it’s no surprise she is highly respected throughout the business.

Outside of work, Charlotte has always had a strong interest in physics and maths. Alongside her full-time role, she has spent several years continuing her studies through home learning, including working towards a maths degree – an impressive commitment.

She also has another passion that many of us benefit from – baking. Over the years Charlotte has brought in a variety of delicious treats for the team, and her Victoria sponge and brownies have become something of a legend in the office.

Thank you, Charlotte, for your hard work, dedication and the many contributions you’ve made over the past 10 years. We look forward to the next decade ahead.

Celebrating 10-year anniversaries at Warren

/in ,

Reaching a decade with one company is a fantastic achievement – and this year, we’re proud to celebrate not one but two 10-year milestones at Warren.

Josh – 10 years of design, leadership and innovation

Congratulations to Josh on reaching the 10-year mark – a full decade of design expertise, engineering production know-how and of course, surviving meetings that could sometimes have been one of his famously detailed emails.

Over the years, Josh has been behind some of our strongest design work, playing a key role in projects including NexGen, ANC and ALS. His technical insight and commitment to getting things right have made a real difference to the quality and performance of what we deliver.

Now leading our Engineering Department, Josh has taken on the significant task of smoothing the transition from engineering into production. It’s a challenge that requires clarity, collaboration and persistence – and he has made it look effortless. We are moving in the right direction, and his drive to continually improve the way we work is something we greatly value.

Thank you, Josh for ten years of excellence, innovation and for keeping your sense of humour intact when “just one small change” turns into something far more involved. We’re looking forward to the next chapter.

Daniel – 10 years of skill, precision and steady progress

Daniel, congratulations on reaching an incredible 10-year milestone with Warren.

From your early days working on the saws, it was clear you had a sharp eye for quality. Over the years, we’ve seen you grow, develop your skills and confidently take on new challenges. Your progression into a highly competent brake press operator/bender is a testament to your hard work, steady improvement and commitment to doing things properly.

Your attention to detail and pride in your work reflect the standards we aim to uphold across the business.

Outside of work, we know you value your weekends spent fishing – a well-earned bit of calm for someone who brings such care and focus to their role each day. You truly are a good egg.

Thank you both for your dedication, loyalty and the contribution you’ve made over the past decade. Long service like this is something we are incredibly proud of at Warren – and we’re delighted to celebrate it.

Christmas raffle success for Macmillan

/in , ,

This year’s Christmas raffle was a huge success for our chosen charity, Macmillan Cancer Support.

Thanks to everyone who took part, we raised £570 through the raffle, with a further £430 raised from the sale of Chromebooks. This brought the total donation to an incredible £1,000, which will go directly towards supporting the vital work Macmillan does.

Charity fundraising has become a very important part of life at Warren Services, and it’s something we’re very proud of. Each year, the generosity and enthusiasm shown by our team helps us make a meaningful contribution to causes that matter.

A big thank you to everyone who got involved, and special thanks to Christine and Becky Webb for their help in making the raffle such a success.

Apprentice journey – learning across Warren

/in , ,

We were pleased to welcome three new apprentices from a local high school to Warren Services in September. Kelci, Danny and Cody have begun their Level 2 apprenticeship studies with West Suffolk College, alongside hands-on department rotations across our Brickfields and Fison sites.

Before Christmas, Cody spent time working in the Sapphire department at Brickfields. Sapphire Balconies is a leading provider of balconies for modern, high-spec apartment developments, and we’ve worked with them for over ten years. During his placement, Cody enjoyed being part of the team and gaining insight into the production process, noting how many of the manufacturing stages are recurrent and precision-led.

Cody has since moved into the Paint area at Brickfields, where he is already proving to be a great addition to the department. We’re looking forward to seeing how he continues to develop, alongside Kelci and Danny, as they progress through their rotations and build their skills within the business.

Supporting apprentices as they learn, grow and gain real-world experience remains an important part of life at Warren, and we’re excited to watch all three continue to excel.

Diet club winner – well done Harry

/in ,

Congratulations to Harry Rudd, who won the November-December Diet Club at Warren Services.

Harry achieved an impressive 18lb weight loss over the duration of the challenge – a fantastic effort. He was very closely followed by Jake Williams, who missed out on the top spot by just 0.6lb in a tightly contested finish.

With a new year comes a new Diet Club, and we’d like to wish the best of luck to everyone taking part this time around. It’s great to see so many people getting involved and supporting each other along the way.

Welcoming Rob to the Warren team

/in ,

We’re pleased to welcome Rob Moan to Warren Services, where he has joined us as a CNC Miller.

Rob brings with him 11 years’ experience as a miller and has chosen to join Warren as part of his journey to further develop his career and broaden his experience within the CNC field. His background and hands-on knowledge will be a valuable addition to our machining capability.

Outside of work, Rob enjoys cooking, keeping active through working out and is currently learning to speak and read Japanese – a challenge that takes real dedication.

We’re delighted to have Rob on board and look forward to him settling in and meeting everyone across the business.
