We are proud to celebrate an incredible milestone - 40 years of service from Sales and Marketing Director Wayne Stringfellow.
Forty years. In the same business. In the same industry. And somehow still smiling.
Wayne joined Jephsons as a young man with an interest in construction and design, and what followed has been a career built on commitment, consistency, and an impressive ability to grow with the business at every stage.
A Celebration Forty Years On
From gaining his qualifications and joining the office team, to developing expertise in project management and estimation, Wayne has progressed through the company in the best possible way — by understanding every part of it.
He now serves as Sales and Marketing Director, proving that experience, dedication, and a steady hand (plus a very good memory for projects from the early days) go a long way.
While 40-year anniversaries are often marked with cake and a few “remember when…” stories, this one is also about genuine appreciation. Wayne’s contribution to Jephsons and the wider industry has been exceptional.
Dave Soar, Commercial Director, commented
“Wayne is one of those rare people who makes a real difference every day – to the work, the team, and the culture. Forty years is an outstanding achievement, and we’re incredibly proud of everything he’s contributed. He’s a huge part of our past, present, and future.”
Colleagues often highlight not just his experience, but his character. Wayne is widely respected for his positivity, professionalism, and steady approach to every project he’s involved in.
Wayne reflects on his journey with typical humility:
“I came here as a young lad and never really left – and I’m very glad I didn’t. Jephsons has given me a brilliant career, great colleagues, and work I’m proud of. Here’s to whatever comes next.”
Wayne’s story reflects Jephsons itself – a business built on people, long-term relationships, and a commitment to doing things properly.
