Supporting our people
We are proud to announce that Castlet is officially an employee-owned company – a move that empowers our people, strengthens our future and secures our legacy.
An employee-owned company is a type of benefit trust in which employees hold most or all of the shares in a company. Employee ownership is known to foster greater employee engagement, innovation, and long-term business resilience.
By becoming employee-owned, Castlet joins a growing number of companies that recognise the benefits of giving employees a vested interest in their company’s success.
The transition was guided by our team, who for over 50 years have been at the heart of everything we do. Although some of our longer-serving staff were already shareholders, the employee-ownership ensures that all of our workforce will have a direct stake in the company’s future.
This move reflects our commitment to our people and reinforces our values of collaboration, innovation and success. It enables everyone to be involved with decision making and to fulfil our ambition to be a leader in providing cost effective engineering solutions across the globe.
As we move into a new era of employee ownership, we are also embracing other changes that will support Castlet’s people, drive business success and create a more sustainable future.
This new era for Castlet is marked by a refreshed brand identity and the launch of our new website. Designed with our customers in mind, we now have the perfect platform to connect with clients, both new and old, across the world.
Tim Eagles, Managing Director, said: “This transition to employee ownership is a natural evolution for our company. Our employees have always been at the heart of what we do, and this structure ensures that their hard work and dedication are rewarded.
“It also secures Castlet’s independence and continued commitment to our customers for years to come.”
