The Millbrook Bed Company has named Lee Pharoah as manufacturing manager.
He was previously operations manager in a printing subsidiary of the Daily Mail group.
He will manage a team of 60, taking responsibility for staffing levels, safety, training and development, operational improvements, production planning as well as task and financial management.
‘I am looking forward to channelling the passion and enthusiasm I have for efficient, smooth processes into my new role,’ says Pharoah. ‘I am ready to learn the ropes for a new industry while drawing on the relevant skills which I can transfer from my previous role. I feel privileged to have the chance to be part of the journey Millbrook is embarking on and to be able to work with this well-established and experience team.’
‘We are conscious that growth brings increased responsibility on our manufacturing team and by having Lee in place, we are able to use his experience of managing a busy workload and environment to ensure that our team is happy and that systems, processes and outputs grow in line with the business,’ says Ross Thurston, Millbrook operation, sales and marketing director.
