Security and monitoring company, Ecl-ips, has been strengthened in recent weeks thanks to three new starters.

Leanne Gough

Leanne Gough has joined as Business Administrator working with Angela Price, Business Operations manager. Leanne has transferred to Ecl-ips after 17 years working in the insurance industry. This includes five years working in customer service followed by 12 years in accounts.

Here she became a senior team leader for insurer broker accounts. Over her career Leanne has completed a range of qualifications in business and administration; bookkeeping and accounting.

Joe Newey

Joe is 22 years old but has already worked in the industry for five years

Meanwhile, the project engineering team, led by David Harris, has been bolstered by Joe Newey joining as Project Engineer and Tom Clark, who is a trainee Project Engineer.

Joe is 22 years old but has already worked in the industry for five years. He also achieved his fire and security qualification last summer after three years of study at college. Although he has not been with the company long Joe said he was 'loving every second of my new journey'.

Tom Clark

Tom, aged 20, arrived at Ecl-ips having had a variety of jobs previously which gave him a good foundation for his new role. He has been a fire technician, undertaking an electrical installation level 3 course at this time, worked laying and maintaining gas pipes, and has been a loft insulation installer. 

However, he decided he wanted to follow a more technical career path and that the security industry would be a good fit. Fortunately for Tom, Ecl-ips is always keen to take on trainees when the company spots potential and can see they can contribute quickly to support the project engineer team.
