PETER EBBENS CELEBRATES 45 YEARS’ SERVICE! Peter Ebbens, Health & Safety Manager, has just celebrated 45 years at GK! We caught up with Peter to ask him about his career… ‘The weekend I started was quite a weekend for me as I met Sue who I married two years later who has also worked at Greene King for 25 years! My first day involved a trip to a gentleman’s outfitters to be measured for my GK overalls! We also used to have a ‘wet canteen’ where you could have a pint on your break and a tobacco store that supplied the pubs with cigarettes and cigars.
Oct 23rd, 1978 — An 18-year-old Peter lands job in the wine bottling hall
I have seen so many changes over my 45 years’ service, it has been quite the rollercoaster, but all the positive changes have made Greene King the company that I am proud to work for today.
1992 — Became a Foreman in transport office
1980 — A few years later – Started holiday cover role in the Warehouse 1981 — Applied for Job as Drays mate and then became a driver
1996 —Became Supervisor
It’s great that we now have a much larger team in Health & Safety meaning we can continue to make huge strides in keeping you all safe and doing our bit to take care of our environment. There are so many more stories I could tell but maybe better to tell these when I retire…just in case!’
