Shaun Kennett achieves Master Tech status

Congratulations from everyone here at T H WHITE to Shaun Kennett, who has been awarded ‘Master Technician’ status in New Holland’s Tractor class. This means that Shaun has attended and passed all tractor training modules at New Holland, displaying his ability in asset reporting and competence in practical engineering.  Shaun was visited by David Pegrum, New Holland zone manager, recently to be presented with his award.

Shaun joined T H WHITE in 2007.  He’d always had a interest in farming having helped out on his Uncle’s Dairy Farm at Cleverton.  He began his training at Lackham College where he studied a three-year Land-based technical course spending his placement year with T H WHITE to gain on-the-job experience.  Realising his interest was in the machinery aspect, he returned to us to develop his career and is now a New Holland specialist working on a wide range of equipment which passes through the workshop including tractors, self-propelled foragers, balers and combines.

Service manager, Alastair Grierson, acted as a mentor for Shaun providing coaching and support throughout his development to help him achieve his certificate and commends him on his achievement.  ‘This knowledge will ensure Shaun continues to develop as a leading technician in his field and be a valued team member to his colleagues here at Knockdown, delivering best in class customer service’.

Well done Shaun!
