Happy Retirement, Pauline!!
Pauline has been with Banyards (originally joining The Lawrence Hewitt Partnership) for an incredible 27 years!
Pauline reflected:
“When I started working as a temp at The Lawrence Hewitt Partnership in 1998, I never imagined I would still be working with one of the same team members 27 years later! Today, just Ralph Lowe remains from the original LHP gang, as the others have since retired or moved on.
I’ve worked with Mike Evans for well over 20 years and Ian Fordham for nearly as long. Over the years, I’ve met so many engineers and administrators — too many to mention, but most of them memorable in their own way.
I feel privileged to have been part of Banyards, witnessing the company grow and thrive. Banyards’ culture is rooted in innovation, and I’ve been lucky to work with a Business Operations Team that has always been supportive.
I’ve grown both professionally and personally. I was encouraged to take on challenges that at first felt daunting, but I’ve come to embrace them — from learning new software to now sharing that knowledge with colleagues, including Simone. Spending the past few weeks showing her the ‘Banyards Way’ has made me appreciate just how much I’ve learned.
Now I’m ready to begin the next chapter of life beyond the workplace. Nigel and I have plenty of plans — some travelling, lots of relaxing, and simply enjoying life. I’ll be spending more time with family and friends, and no longer gazing longingly out of the office window on sunny days. I also plan to pick up my paints and sketchbooks again — we’ll see if I’ve still got the touch!
I wish everyone at Banyards all the best and thank you for making my time here such a pleasure. I’m sure I’ll think of you often — especially when I spot a Banyards project that brings back memories. I’ll be following the company’s journey with great interest and wish you every success.”
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Pauline for her dedication, commitment, and invaluable contributions over the years. Her presence and hard work have left a lasting, positive impact on all those who’ve had the pleasure of working alongside her.
Nick Till said:
“It has been a pleasure having Pauline as part of the Banyards team. We wish her every happiness, relaxation, and exciting adventures in her well-earned retirement. We look forward to seeing her sketches and paintings!”
David Cocksedge commented:
“Pauline, congratulations on your retirement and thank you for all your hard work. You’ve been a fantastic member of the team and a tremendous help to me personally, as well as to everyone you’ve worked with. I’m sure you carry many great memories and have seen the business evolve in incredible ways!”
While we’re sad to see Pauline go, we are thrilled for her as she begins this exciting new chapter. Her warmth, dedication, and helpfulness will be missed by all.
Wishing you endless joy, well-earned relaxation, and amazing new adventures, Pauline!”
