Astley Signs targets expansion across the UK
A sign manufacturer which has worked with the likes of the Hilton Hotel Group, Frankie and Benny’s and Waitrose is expanding its presence across the UK in an effort to secure growth in the south. Astley has a workforce of 140 across four sites in Gateshead, Leeds, Milton Keynes and Glasgow and, as part of a major review of its succession planning programme, is creating at least ten more jobs in Milton Keynes.
David Forrester, sales director and co-owner of Astley, said the Milton Keynes site plays a "key part" in the company’s operations, adding that it is the "ideal location" for serving clients in the South East. "We have already started our recruitment drive with the appointment of three staff," he added. "However, we are still looking for motivated and enthusiastic individuals in business development, project management, estimating and installation. "It’s a really exciting time for the business as we look to build our portfolio and increase turnover across all of our target markets."
The company has said that it might also take on additional members of staff at its Gateshead operations. Astley was founded more than 90 years ago and has been owned by the current directors for 25 years this year. The company’s portfolio of clients includes many blue chip brands such as the Hilton Hotel Group, Frankie and Benny’s, Sainsbury’s, Waitrose, the Co-operative Group and Esso, while it has also designed the signs for local leisure facilities including the Metro Centre and Eldon Square when they became part of the Intu Group; Metro Radio Arena; and Market Cross Jewellers.
