A scaffolding supervisor on our Sellafield Product and Residue Store Retreatment Plant (SRP) has talked about his pride in making a difference at PPP.
Craig Bennett, who works for Altrad on SRP, takes pride in the dedication of his team. Having recently stepped into his role, his leadership is already being recognised.
He said: “I’ve not long been a supervisor on this major project, I’ve been put on SRP because of my work on other projects, so it’s good to see hard work gets noticed.”
Craig’s role involves overseeing scaffolding operations, ensuring work is done safely and efficiently. His strong relationships with both the team and management help him bridge the gap, something he believes is rare in a supervisory role.
One of the biggest challenges on site has been material logistics, with scaffolding materials needing to be lifted and moved across different levels.
Proud to Lead
For Craig, working on SRP is about more than just the job: “The way they work makes me proud, it’s proper teamwork.
“I am proud to work at PPP because of the people, the progression and the recognition. I’ve been asked about moving up further, but I’m happy in this role.
“I’ve got a good relationship with the lads and management, so I can make a difference here.”
His advice to new SRP team members: “It’s a strong team, especially in scaffolding. The key is collaboration, everyone works well together and that makes the job easier and safer.”
Craig’s leadership and commitment reflect the spirit of being ‘proud to lead’, recognising hard work, valuing teamwork and ensuring safety remains at the heart of everything at PPP.
