The Window Company (Contracts)’s future as a family-run business is secure, with the third generation joining the team.
Callum Petre, son of Managing Director Rob and Finance Director Rachel, and grandson of founder and Chairman David Thornton, is now on board – learning the business from the ground up as a labourer.
Callum is working with some of the commercial window specialist’s most experienced fitting teams on a mix of social housing and new build projects. He is learning just what it takes to deliver the kind of outstanding service and attention to detail which has helped the company achieve record turnover and win four G-Awards Installer of the Year titles.
When he first joined the company, 21-year-old Callum also spent several months working with the administration and resident liaison team, headed up by his aunt Katie Thornton, so has a valuable appreciation of the service levels and reporting procedures which underpin the quality of service The Window Company (Contracts) is committed to delivering on every single installation.
Callum commented: “The Window Company (Contracts) is at the heart of our family – and I couldn’t be happier to be building my career here. I’m really enjoying learning a trade and getting my hands dirty out on site. It’s really nice to be out meeting residents and seeing for myself just what a difference new warm and secure windows and doors can make to their lives.”
