she has since completed her AAT Levels 2 to 4 , and is now working towards ACCA accreditation , all whilst having been promoted to the role of Senior Finance & Property Management Executive ,” says Samantha .
She adds that Adelphi also actively welcomes students to join for work experience during their GCSE years and college placements . “ In 2023 , we were joined by three students for work experience , one of whom had learned of Adelphi when our Operations Director , Satal Thethy , acted as a STEM Ambassador for her school . The students worked within various Adelphi departments , ranging from controls and automation and mechanical design to machine testing in the workshop .”
Looking to the future
With each of these pillars in place , Adelphi ’ s future looks prosperous . To close the discussion , Chris Wilson , the Managing Director , shares his five-year vision for the business . “ I ’ d like to see the Adelphi Group of Companies becoming the UK market leader for filling and capping solutions . To achieve this , there are a few things we need to make happen . Firstly , we need continued , sustainable growth in sales and margins both domestically and internationally . Secondly , an expansion for our R & D department , both in personnel and in the products we design and manufacture , incorporating the most efficient , cutting edge and productive solutions that our markets desire . Thirdly , expansion of our site to support our capacity to meet demand increases . This will incorporate increased employment
investment with a strong focus on our already active and successful apprenticeship schemes in place . And finally , an increased geographical turnover expansion to access new geographical markets that either have not been penetrated so far or will require our product solutions as their industrial output increases .
“ Our focus will also continue to be aimed at increasing not only our own , but our suppliers ’ and customers ’, engagement with the social and environmental responsibilities that we have . I anticipate that this five-year journey will also incorporate the latest tools available such as AI to ensure that customer requirements are met in the most efficient and productive manner to achieve the desired outcome ,” Chris concludes . ■
