A big welcome to Adam Etchells, who has joined Graham Engineering Ltd as our new Master Scheduler 👋

Adam brings over 30 years of hands-on manufacturing experience, starting his career on the shop floor before progressing into planning, quality, logistics and senior manufacturing roles across a range of demanding industries, including aerospace. He’s well known for bringing structure, clarity and discipline to planning and for delivering major improvements in on-time-in-full performance.

Away from work, Adam is a family man with two grown-up kids. He enjoys travelling (Cyprus, Greece, Jamaica and Sri Lanka to name a few), keeping active with sport, and getting out hiking in the Lakes, plus the odd social occasion too 🍻⛰️

Adam said: “The opportunity to support the shop floor and help bring predictability and confidence to planning was a big attraction for me. I’m really looking forward to working with everyone at Graham’s.”

Great to have you on board, Adam - welcome to the team. 💙

What a fantastic two days we’ve had with our apprentices at Graham Engineering Ltd.

Normally based full time at college, we brought them in to experience hands-on engineering in a real-world environment. Over the two days, they had the opportunity to meet the wider team, tour the factory and see live production in action, giving them valuable time in the workplace they’ll soon be part of.

To add a bit of fun (and healthy rivalry), we set up a practical challenge between the apprentices. Their work was assessed by Ian Fraser, Jason Harrop and Adam Chilton, who were all impressed by their effort and enthusiasm.

🥇 Well done to Jack Preston – the winner of the challenge!

It was a brilliant way to connect classroom learning with real-life application, and we look forward to welcoming them back.
