Paul Skelly

Paul Snowden

Job Titles:
  • Head of Operations
  • Member of the Senior Leadership Team
I have over 40 years' experience in production and Manufacturing having first started out as an apprentice with Fenners at Marfleet in Hull and obtaining ONC and HNC in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. I was fortunate to have the opportunity, to experience and work in many of the different divisions and locations of the group, enabling me to have an excellent grounding in not only my own trade but from shop floor to higher management and customer facing teams. The last year of my apprenticeship was spent at Fenamec in Hull which was the Conveyor, Automation and Controls Division of the Group supplying conveyor systems to airports and many of the blue chip companies around the UK and the world. I spent the next nine years there, first as a Controls Engineer then as Senior Controls Engineer. The role was varied and consisted of preparing and presenting quotations, to designing, building programming and commissioning systems. It gave me the opportunity to travel extensively and to meet and work alongside different people something I have always enjoyed doing. Our management team works closely with our SLT to deliver the CATCH objectives and manage the day-to-day operations of the CATCH Business.
