🏕️ September’s snapshot is all about getting off the beaten track!

There’s nothing quite like switching off, getting out into nature and enjoying a few days away from the daily grind.

We love seeing what the JJR crew get up to when they’re off the clock - whether that’s travelling, exploring, camping or simply making the most of a well-earned break. 🌏

At JJR Engineering, we know that what happens outside of work matters just as much as what happens on the job.

This month’s calendar snapshot is thanks to Ray, who’s been making the most of his downtime - spending quality hours in the garage working on his car. 🛠️

For Ray, it’s more than just tinkering. It’s switching off, getting hands-on with a passion project, and enjoying some well-earned time doing what he loves.

Apprentice → Leader → Legend: Nick’s 20-Year Journey at JJR Engineering 🎉⚡

Some people come to work… and then there’s Nick. From day one, he’s been making sparks fly - literally and figuratively! ⚡😎

Starting as a fresh-faced apprentice back in 2006 👷‍♂️, Nick qualified at just 19, and it was clear from the start he had serious talent and drive 💪

By 2012, he stepped up as Electrical Workshop Supervisor 🛠️, leading the team wiring panels for projects and machinery, while jumping in on repairs and critical jobs across the business 🔧

Next came Fixed Plant Manager ⚙️, building PulpMaster machines, then gradually taking on all Fixed Plant & Equipment - creating manuals 📘setting up servicing routines 🔄 and keeping operations running smoothly ✅

Today, Nick leads both the Electrical Department and Fixed Plant & Equipment 👏 showing leadership, flexibility, and heaps of commitment 🌟

But beyond the titles, it’s the way he makes the workplace safe, productive, and enjoyable for everyone that really stands out 🏆

An outstanding contribution - Congratulations Nick!!
