Warren Powers has been Storeman of the maintenance department at our Coalville site for over five years.
No day is ever the same for Warren and is packed with a variety of daily challenges. From taking deliveries at goods inwards, organising the stores so that the maintenance team can quickly find the items that they need, liaising with the maintenance team to get items ready for future projects and arranging for broken machinery to be sent for repairs, Warren plays an important role in keeping the Board24 site at Coalville running smoothly.
He previously worked for Interserve water services which involved advising companies how to prevent bacteria growth in their water systems. Before that he worked for Technigraphic, which involved processing orders and despatching printed transfer papers for garments.
Warren said, “I enjoy learning about all about the engineering and electrical parts we keep in stock and where and how they are used on each of the machines. I like how maintenance, purchasing and myself work as a great team together and try to have a laugh along the way!
“I also enjoy helping anyone on site whether it’s something small from them needing new workwear to retrieving a machine part from the stores urgently so maintenance can install it and get the factory running again.”
When he’s not at work, Warren enjoys spending time with his lovely wife Abbie, family and friends. He has many, many hobbies outside work which include paddle-boarding, being on a pool team (just excuse to have a beer really) and kiteboarding just to name just a few.
