Meet Maria Sokalska and Magdalena Neizabitowska – a niece and aunt duo working in Alpha Manufacturing.
Manufacturing is often perceived as a male-dominated environment, but at Alpha Manufacturing, we’re proud to employ many women across the business who are tremendously passionate about the work they carry out daily.
Maria and Magdalena work in assembly, constructing server cabinets for one of our largest customers.
Originally from Poland, Magdalena joined the Alpha Manufacturing team two years ago. She comments, “I love my role in assembly, I like the people, and the work hours fit my family life. When a space in the team opened up, I quickly recommended the role to my niece, Maria.
With two sons, Magdalena spends her free time as a mum and supporting her boys.
Maria joined the assembly team six months ago and is enjoying the opportunity. She says, “Although I’ve only been here six months, I’ve been offered an opportunity to train in the quality area, ensuring that all cabinets pass quality inspections before they leave the factory.
“Everyone at Alpha Manufacturing is friendly, helpful, open, and honest. I really like that. I enjoy learning new things and am keen to see how far I can go within the company.”
Maria enjoys hiking, especially in the Lake District and walking her dog, a Pomeranian called Elmo. She’s also a big lover of the gym, something she says helps her in her role as it can be quite manual.
Maria adds, “Assembling the cabinets is a very satisfying job. From seeing the parts flat, to fully constructed is a real sense of achievement.”
Product assembly is not just a task but a crucial part of our business. The dedication and passion of our employees, like Maria and Magdalena, are what ensure it’s done correctly.
Without their commitment to doing a great job, we wouldn’t achieve the outstanding results we do, and the fantastic customer feedback we receive.
