Wellton Energy Limited is a newly formed sales and marketing outsourcing company that has over forty years combined experience within this sector. With experience and knowledge of a wide range of industries, the company has grown rapidly in the first 10 months of trading. The company currently employees 5 members of staff.
Director Andy McDowell said “We don’t concentrate on the big energy companies and brands. Our key objective is to offer our industry expertise to help small / medium sized businesses grow within the market, to enable them to develop and compete with larger companies. We also aim to help start up companies to enable them to get a good footing in the market.”
Mr McDowell continued “We have been trading successfully within Europe since our initiation, concentrating on the major energy generating regions. Initially our customer base was within the Middle East and South East Asia, however we are now working closely with several companies situated within the UK and Europe.”
As a growing business itself, Wellton Energy needs premises to accommodate the increasing size of the business. “We have moved premises a few times to meet the demands of the business and as our business grows, we will need a larger building, but currently, our building in Henderson Business Park is sufficient for our needs.”
One of the main challenges that companies face as identified in a recent Chamber survey is employing and managing their staff. Andy McDowell does not feel that they have a problem with the recruitment and management of staff. “When recruiting and training, we take into consideration the age and experience of our new staff and allocate our training and mentoring time around this,” says Andy. “Younger, less experienced staff receives more of our time to make sure that they are ready for independent work. It’s all about taking the right approach.”
Definitely a company to watch.
