Ransomes Jacobsen’s New Apprentices

September 25, 2019/in News, People, Press Release/by Juliet Liddell

Ransomes Jacobsen’s New Apprentices: Ransomes Jacobsen, has added 12 new engineering trainees to their successful apprenticeship scheme.

The programme is now into its seventh year with 27 local apprentices working through the craft, welding and technical areas of the manufacturing process. The machines the apprentices help build are shipped all over the world and are used at major sporting venues from Ipswich to Dubai.

Passing on the knowledge of their current employees to a new generation is the core of the scheme. Nationwide, it is well known that there is a skills shortage in engineering due to a reduction in large scale manufacturing businesses, with only a small number remaining that use the same core skills as Ransomes.

Simon Rainger, operations director at Ransomes Jacobsen, views the scheme as a long-term commitment to manufacturing in Ipswich and wants it to continue benefitting young people in the area.

He said: “We’ve been manufacturing in Ipswich for 187 years and we’ve always employed local people, and we want to continue that with younger generations. We need to develop future experts by learning from our current staff, and that gives young people the chance to learn a valuable skill and build a career within Ransomes where they are highly valued team members.

“The apprentices are very well received in their work areas, and their rate of learning is a direct result of the one on one time they spend with trained staff. They are regarded as essential staff members, and there is no differentiation because they’re apprentices.

“To date, the scheme has been very successful, and we’re looking to attract a wider range of people with our 2020 apprenticeships. We currently have a particular focus on showing females the career opportunities available within a skilled factory setting because we want this opportunity to be for everyone.”

People who are interested in finding out more about the 2020 apprenticeship scheme can contact Jo Barber on 01473 276271 or e-mail jbarber@textron.com.

Herbatech Launch New Website

September 24, 2019/in Events, News, Press Release/by External Source

Herbatech Launch New Website: On the occasion of its twenty-fifth anniversary, Herbatech launches the new website HERBATECH.com which aims to represent Herbatech digital business card in the International turf business community.

Edited by Marco Guarino, Web Master for SicyBit, the graphic line chosen for the portal is linear, minimal and clean, consistent with the evolution of the brand, to ensure maximum comfort and simplicity to navigators. A new digital platform to transmit the pillars on which Herbatech identity is based: the technical quality of its products combined with the values of the company: SCIENCE – SOLUTIONS – RESULTS.

The most important section of HERBATECH.com is of course the pages dedicated to the product portfolio. In 2019, the graphic restyling of the sub brands Zeotech, Biogel, Herbafer and the creation of more modern and targeted payoffs were carried out.

The decision to relaunch Herbatech official website highlights Herbatech desire to focus more and more on the digital world; with HERBATECH.com greenkeepers, groundsmen and turf professionals can comfortably consult and download the catalogue, finding technical data sheets, photos and available packaging.

“Our greatest aspiration is to involve turf professional operators, both technically and emotionally,” says Giuseppe Serenelli, CEO and founder of Herbatech, “the new web site HERBATECH.com is the digital evolution of the world of Herbatech; the new challenge is to reach with it professional turf markets around the world so far unexplored by our company”.
