It produces 30 per cent of the 11.5 billion envelopes delivered by Royal Mail each year and locally Encore Envelopes employs over 50 people at its Dewsbury location.
Joining Encore Envelopes is business development manager, Brett Hopper, and trainee production planner Paul Wrightson.
Mr Hopper, who has 35 years’ experience in the industry, said: “I wanted to bring my expertise to The Encore Group, and my experience in sheet-fed envelope manufacturing and supplying the public sector will benefit the company.
“After being impressed with the wide range of manufacturing and printing capabilities at Encore’s plants, I look forward to developing a new customer base and providing them with a quality product and service.”
Encore Packaging has taken on two business development managers, Graham Tattam and Chris Johns, business development support manager Sean Mattimore, an estimator Steve White, pre-production administrator Shannon Taylor and production and quality support coordinator Megan Heron.
Russell Croisdale, managing director of The Encore Group, said: “I am delighted to welcome our new staff on board to Encore Envelopes and Encore Packaging Solutions, who bring a great mix of skills and experience. They will enhance our team and play a valuable and important part of our future.
“As both businesses grow, and in conjunction with our succession planning, it is vital that we can attract new talent and expertise into our company.”
