Adam Armshaw | Plant Manger
How long have you worked at Walraven UK and what is your current role?
I have worked at Walraven for 10 years, having recently been promoted to Plant Manager in 2024.
What do you like best about the company?
It is a family owned company with a real family ethos running throughout, nobody is just a number, and everybody is
integral to the success of the company.
Describe the company culture in three words
Open, honest and people-centric.
Does the company offer flexible work arrangements?
Yes, absolutely, one thing that the pandemic has taught us all is that we can and should have flexibility in the workplace and that hybrid working arrangements are beneficial for both the employer & employee. A good work-life balance is really important at Walraven.
How does the company celebrate employee success?
No matter how small or large the success, it’s really important that it is recognised. One way we do this is through our Reward & Recognition platform called Bonusly; this is where everyone can recognise and reward a colleagues achievement or idea, which is shared across the whole company so others can see and also recognise that work by rewarding them with extra points. At any time employees can cash in their points for vouchers to spend at a whole host of well-known outlets, or indeed they can donate them to charity if they wish.
We also put on events to reward the work of all of employees such as a staff BBQ afternoon; and last’s years one with crazy golf was a big hit for all.

How did you learn about Walraven UK?
I was looking for a creative, marketing based position and quite out of the blue, my friend James (Thomas)
who works here, put the job advert on a WhatsApp group we are both part of.
What is your role and how long have you been here?
Marketing Assistant – a mere 6 months as of March 2025!
What attracted you to join Walraven?
The advert for the position caught my eye, but definitely researching the company prior; visiting their website and social media –
it was clear Walraven had a good, family based ethos and cared about their staff, whilst also having strong aspirations.

Family, Caring, Global.
What do you like most about your current role?
For me its a joy to get to think up interesting and engaging campaigns, whilst honing new skills in graphic design and improving upon my video editing skills and portfolio. Its also refreshing to learn about Walraven’s history and the multitude of products they create, and varying aspects and departments of the company. A true learning curve! I also love appearing in videos and acting as an on-screen ambassador/presenter for the company!
What’s a goal you’re hoping to achieve here in your first year?
Really get to know our stock and how/for what its used, improve my skills in web design, learn about SEO practices and grow our TikTok channel to 500-1k followers!
