Mackworth Vehicle Conversion Specialists, a provider of bespoke vehicle solutions, has appointed a new team member, made a promotion, and made a significant investment in facilities.
Mackworth has welcomed Phil Taylor as the new Quality and Compliance Inspector. With over five years of experience in quality assurance from his time at Toyota, Phil brings a wealth of expertise in maintaining high standards in the automotive industry.
At Toyota, Phil was responsible for conducting 300 checks in just five minutes on a rolling road, inspecting up to 280 vehicles daily.
At Mackworth, Phil’s role will be critical in ensuring that all vehicle conversions and modifications adhere to customer specifications and industry standards. He will be responsible for performing final quality checks on completed builds, verifying that each vehicle meets the bespoke needs of customers and adheres to Mackworth’s rigorous quality assurance protocols.
Andrew Kent, General Manager at Mackworth, said: “Phil’s eye for detail and dedication to quality will play a key role in enhancing the company’s operations, ensuring that all vehicles leave the facility ready for use and in perfect condition.”
Andrew continued: “Phil’s extensive background in quality assurance and his passion for the industry make him a valuable asset as Mackworth continues to grow and develop its capabilities.”
The company has also promoted Emma Ockhuis to Customer Sales Administrator. Emma has been with Mackworth for just over 12 months, during which time she has demonstrated exceptional dedication, attention to detail, and a strong passion for customer service.
Andrew said: “Emma has a fantastic work ethic and attitude; she’s always willing to go the extra mile for the team and our customers. Her positive approach and attention to detail have been invaluable, and she’s become someone the team can always rely on. Emma is not only efficient and organised, but she always brings her smile to work, creating a friendly and welcoming atmosphere for everyone.”
As part of its ongoing commitment to enhancing the work environment, Mackworth has invested £25,000 in upgrading its workshop toilet facilities. The new installation features automatic taps, promoting hygiene and water efficiency, along with efficient hand dryers, and modern cubicles and urinals. This investment aims to create a comfortable workspace for employees, ensuring the team can operate in the best possible conditions.
