As 2024 drew to a close, we were delighted to welcome Andrew Wakeham to the MPL Fabrications team! Andrew brings a wealth of expertise in MIG and TIG welding and extensive experience in the lift industry, making him a perfect fit for our growing business.
Andrew’s Background
Andrew’s journey in fabrication and welding began in 2008, when he embarked on a four-year college course to achieve his NVQ+VRQ Level 3 in Fabrication and Welding, mastering techniques across materials like mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium, and even titanium. Since then, he has built an impressive career across multiple industries, including construction, steel erection, and refrigeration maintenance.
Over the years, Andrew has taken on various leadership roles, such as being a Team Leader managing a skilled workshop of five, overseeing fabrication, welding applications, and on-site steel erection projects. His self-employed experience further expanded his skills in site fitting and in-house fabrication, ensuring he’s comfortable taking on both technical challenges and managerial responsibilities.
In addition to his technical expertise, Andrew’s versatility and licenses, including forklift truck, scissor lift, and cherry picker certifications make him an asset to our team. His problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to handle complex projects align perfectly with MPL’s commitment to delivering excellence.
Andrew has already made an impact by contributing to our fabrication processes and ensuring projects are delivered with precision and efficiency. Whether it’s tackling specialised welding tasks or working on bespoke lift-related fabrications, his dedication and passion shine through.
A Promising Future Together
As MPL Fabrications continues to grow, we’re confident that Andrew’s extensive experience and drive will play a vital role in our success. We look forward to seeing the amazing contributions he’ll make to our team and projects as we gear up for an exciting 2025.
