Lindum Group has appointed Richard Shaw to membership of its Executive Board.
He joined the company as an apprentice on a YTS placement in 1988, and has progressed through the business since, being made MD of its Building Maintenance Services business in 2020.
Edward Chambers, Co-chairman of Lindum Group, said: “Richard has shown considerable commitment and loyalty to the business and will continue in his existing role, whilst having greater involvement across the Group.”
Richard is a member of the Lindum ‘Sock Club’, comprising past and present employees with at least 25 years of service in the business.
Richard said: “I’m delighted to be appointed to the executive board. It is a great honour. When I joined Lindum as an eighteen year old, I never dreamed I would still be here all these years later.
“I didn’t know for sure I’d even get the job as I failed woodwork at school – but the support and training I’ve been given at Lindum means I have been able to enjoy a varied and interesting career.”
