  • "I joined IAE eight months ago and have developed many skills during this time. I am lucky to be given plenty of responsibility as part of my role, meaning that I have had the opportunity take ownership of several projects. I like the flexibility, holidays and rates of pay that IAE offers me, they are extremely competitive- even as an apprentice. My work each day is varied and challenging and compared to my previous employers, there is many more opportunities to progress within the company."

  • "I joined IAE 21 years ago as a welder constructing water troughs and tanks. In 2010 I progressed to be a team leader, before progressing again in 2013 to be a shift supervisor. I now oversee the day to day running of an entire production facility which includes robotic and automated laser cutting. I am grateful to IAE for giving me the opportunity to progress throughout my career, which in turn has made me work harder to continue my career development. Since I first joined IAE, the company has grown massively and I do believe that there is real opportunities here for all employees to progress if they’re prepared to work hard. IAE is a great company to work for, they treat everyone equally and the benefits package is extremely motivating. I would recommend the company to anyone. "

  • "Since joining IAE 13 years ago I have learnt a variety of skills. My current role as a galvanising operator has taught me vital skills such as effective and efficient product jigging, quality assurance and computer literacy. The atmosphere within the galvanising plant is friendly, yet professional and I would recommend it to anyone considering employment with IAE. The support I have received from my managers and IAE has definitely been a key factor as to why I have remained with the company for so long. "

  • "I joined IAE straight from school in 2013 as an apprentice in the Administration Department. Since then I have moved into the Customer Service Department where my role includes providing aftersales support to customers who have already purchased from IAE to nurture sustainable and long-term relationships as well as provide credibility for the IAE brand. Having a background in agriculture, I was familiar with the product range and brand before I joined the company which has only spurred me on to develop a progressive career here at IAE."
