Hi Carol
Great that you were there for part of the time l was (1975- 1982) so a chance to relate maybe, then BTR took over and a lot of us were sent packing unfortunately as l really enjoyed my time at Serck, or Serck Heat Transfer it was at that stage.
I started in the Post Room located in the main office block at the end of Seeleys Road, working with the likes of Hilda Walker and Ernie Miles, l spent a lot of my early time there delivering the post to both the offices and factory units either side of the Warwick Road so can probably recall more departments and names from the past than most (I really must list them all at some point).
I do remember the Personnel and Apprentices Dept being located on the left hand side as you entered the main drive covered way, with the Security check point, Telephone switchboard Room and surgery on the right.
John Nottingham was Personnel manager, with l think Don Granthan and Doug Smith over the Apprentices.
I can recall Christine Hague being one of the secretaries around that time.
I then moved to the Aircraft Equipment Division where l stayed till the end.
The film l'm working on will l'm sure bring back some memories for you (do you remember the canteen ran by Harold Newman?)
l look forward to hearing back from you.
Gary
