Metal Assemblies Ltd is proud to announce that it has been shortlisted for the In-Comm Awards 2026 in the Large Employer of the Year category
A highly successful Tier 2 manufacturer of metal pressings and welded assemblies, Metal Assemblies has spent decades as a trusted, behind the scenes partner within UK manufacturing supply chains. Known for its technical capability, reliability, and long term customer relationships, the business has built a strong reputation while remaining largely out of the spotlight.
Today, Metal Assemblies continues to perform strongly while also undergoing a period of growth and reinvention. In response to ongoing social, economic, and technological change within the manufacturing sector, the company is investing heavily in its people, equipment, and skills to ensure long term sustainability and competitiveness.
A key part of this strategy is its apprenticeship programme, which plays a vital role in developing future engineering talent. Apprentices are trained in skills directly aligned to the needs of the business and are integrated into real production environments from an early stage.
The apprenticeship programme is championed by Technical Director, Mr Nigel Mason, whose commitment and hands on support over many years have helped shape its success.
As Deborah Collis, HR Director, explains, Nigel has supported the initiative wholeheartedly, ensuring apprentices receive both strong technical training and meaningful career development opportunities. Being shortlisted for this award is a proud moment for Metal Assemblies Ltd and reflects the company’s belief that investing in people is fundamental to continued success in modern manufacturing
This nomination reflects Metal Assemblies Ltd’s belief that skills development, talent investment, and long term workforce planning are not optional extras, but fundamental to sustained success in modern manufacturing.
