Our Meet the Team continues and, this time, we’re heading to our Coleford facility to catch up with Rhys Morris. If you’ve ever worked with our columns and poles, chances are Rhys has played a part in making things happen behind the scenes.
Rhys looks after supply chain planning and new product integration - he helps keep everything moving smoothly while making sure new products are introduced without a hitch. Pretty important stuff!
But Rhys’ story with CU Phosco actually started back in 2014. At just 16, fresh out of school, he joined us on the shop floor. Fast forward 11 years, and he’s now leading in supply chain and new product planning - proof that hard work and dedication really do pay off.
RHYS, TELL US A BIT ABOUT YOUR ROLE
“I’m Supply Chain Planner and New Product Integration Lead - which means I get to work across different areas of the business, keeping everything joined up and running smoothly.”
WHAT WERE YOU DOING BEFORE CU PHOSCO?
“Nothing too exciting - I joined straight from school at 16!”
WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT YOUR ROLE?
“For me, it’s the variety. I get to talk to everyone - from reps and suppliers to the team on the shop floor. It keeps things interesting, and I like being that link between different parts of the industry.”
WHAT DOES CU PHOSCO MEAN TO YOU?
“A lot! CU Phosco gave me my first job and the chance to grow. I started on the shop floor, and over the last 11 years I’ve been able to develop and take on more responsibility. Hopefully, that journey continues.”
AND WHEN YOU'RE NOT AT WORK?
“I’m a big Tottenham fan - which has its ups and downs! – and I love getting out on the golf course whenever I can.”
From the shop floor to leading supply chain planning, Rhys’ journey shows what’s possible with drive, commitment, and the right support. He’s a huge part of the CU Phosco family, and we can’t wait to see what the next chapter brings for him.
