Turning a brilliant idea into reality takes a team of brilliant people!

At The Engineering Quest we like to spend time training and nurturing our team, so everyone has the skills and knowledge to excel at their job.

We have a ‘family business ethos’ where everyone is treated with respect. This includes apprentices at the beginning of their career and senior craftspeople that work two or three days a week as they pass on their knowledge to the younger generations.

We have monthly open discussion forums to pass useful information from one team to another. We also have a highly successful constant improvement suggestions system that allows everyone to play their part in developing the company.
