As it’s #InternationalWomensDay, we sat down with Ruth, our Procurement Manager at Astley who provided her own insight on working within the manufacturing industry.

As a manufacturer in a predominantly male industry, we are aware of the struggle in our sector to recruit and help support women’s career progression.

We pride ourselves in doing all we can to continue changing the landscape of women in manufacturing and challenging these stereotypes, and we couldn’t be more proud of our leading ladies at Astley!

If you’d like to collaborate on a new project, feel free to get in touch today.
