Making a move to a new company after 21 years is something Michelle Locke gave much thought to.
The Product and Marketing Manager moved from her longstanding role at Centurion Safety Products to move to hygienic equipment expert Teknomek.
UK-based Teknomek specialises in designing and manufacturing hygienic stainless-steel furniture and equipment for industries with stringent cleanliness requirements.
Locke covers both the set solutions, as well as the many bespoke design services offered by the company. With this, she worked with many sectors including, food processing, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, and biotechnology.

Locke was headhunted into the position by a former colleague, and after doing some research in the company, decided to make the jump.
“After spending a large proportion of my career to date at one company, moving to Teknomek was a great opportunity to work with somebody I knew and trusted, whilst also developing new skills and learning about new sectors,” she explained.
Whilst Centurion and Teknomek both work within the sphere of health and safety, the markets they operate in, and products they design and manufacture, are very different. However, Locke points out the underlying differentiator for both companies is truly understanding the customer’s challenges in order to provide an actually useful solution.
Locke explains that in order to do this, the team must questions that hone in on layout, function, people and processes. “We ask a lot of questions,” Locke jokes.
