1 min read

Laura Morrey, 28, has been appointed assistant industrial product manager at Fuchs Lubricants, based in Stoke-on-Trent, part of the Fuchs Petrolub SE Group. Morrey joins Fuchs from a laboratory consumables manufacturer, where she spent four years and held a number of roles, including quality engineer for plastics and assistant product manager for glass.

A graduate in biomedical science, Morrey is now charged with assisting product manager Alex Holmes in developing new industrial ranges for Fuchs, as well as managing production issues and creating promotional materials.

“I saw the job advertised and thought it looked a perfect opportunity as I had just completed my level four qualification in marketing,” she says. “My Dad has also worked at Fuchs for 20 years, so the company had always been on my radar.

“My job involves anything around getting the product to market, developing new ranges and trying to manage production issues, as well as creating supporting literature like case studies,” continues Morrey. “Everyone has been lovely and there are lots of opportunities to progress. At the moment, I just want to master product management and take it from there.”

Morrey has already been involved in the launch of Fuchs’ newly developed range of FAD-free EcoCool metalworking products, which are exempt from labelling legislation.

Richard Rogers, head of industrial specialities, says: “We are pleased to welcome Laura to the team and she has settled in well. She has a good knowledge of what is required to bring a product to market, which will be very helpful as we continue to expand and improve our range.”
