This November, as the cold weather takes hold of everyday life for real, the days can feel dark, dull and dreary, but that's nothing to be ashamed of when you get out into our production. It's a hive of activity from early morning to late afternoon and you can immediately feel the good vibes, despite the fast pace, and you're usually greeted with a smile, no matter who you meet.
Our new colleagues Gareth, Malin and Ramond contribute greatly to the good atmosphere, but some say that it was already there before they joined the business, and that may well be the case, because it was one of the reasons they joined Alf Pettersson AB.
Now all three are not completely new to the business Ramond has been with us for a while now, about 1.5 years but Gareth and Malin started during October. Three colleagues who have a broad and solid competence, having previously worked in e.g. forestry and manufacturing, fine carpentry, massage, window manufacturing, balloon sculpting, car building, fine mechanics and the profession of window cleaning.
Experience that may not be required to work at Alf Pettersson AB, but experience and knowledge from other industries is good to have as we continue to develop our business, work environment and well-being together in the company.
Malin is a jack-of-all-trades with experience from many different industries. One experience she has is that she wants to work with her body and preferably with practical things and then work at Alf Pettersson AB fits perfectly. Malin lives in a villa just outside Alingsås with her three children, together with her partner and his two children. She likes to be active in her spare time and is involved in many of the children's activities.
Malin currently works in assembly and the reason she applied to Alf Pettersson AB is that the company has a reputation for being a good place to work.
Gareth, a gentleman with his roots in England, now lives in Alingsås with his two sons, aged 8 and 10. He has previously worked as a team leader at another Alingsås company and before that he worked in hospitality. Gareth currently works in assembly and also enjoys creating and making practical things in his spare time and is a self-proclaimed woodworking nerd. "Using old manual tools, implements and techniques and creating something at my leisure is something I really enjoy..."
Ramond, comes from the northern parts of Alingsås municipality, more specifically from Sollebrunn where he lives with his partner and their two daughters, 9 and 13 years old, and Bernese mountain dog Brumma. In his spare time he supports the local football team where he has taken on the role of leader of his daughters' respective football teams and thanks to his daughters' interest in football, Ramond is now a qualified UEFA-C leader (please read more on SvFF).
Ramond has a broad experience from different industries behind him and is currently working a lot with material management which is an important part of streamlining and creating capacity in the business.
A warm welcome to the team, Ramond, Malin and Gareth!
