Rhys Clyde wins TTJ Career Development Award

Rhys Clyde, Area Sales Manager, was delighted to receive the TTJ Career Development Award in the under 25 category. This category, sponsored by Glennon Brothers, is for those under 25 who have undertaken some form of continued professional development. This award recognises the achievement in training, qualifications and skills of individual employees in the timber industry.

The annual TTJ Awards has been held by the Timber Trades Journal since 1997, and the event has grown into the timber industry’s leading annual awards event, attracting attendees from the UK and worldwide. The event is designed as a fun, rewarding event for the entire timber and wood product industry, aimed at companies involved in the trading and manufacture of wood products.

Rhys commented "I’m delighted to have received the Career Development Award recently and would like to say thanks to past and present managers, mentors, colleagues and customers, who have helped me throughout my career. Also to James Jones & Sons for the ongoing support and opportunities which have been pivotal in shaping not only my career path but also my personal growth. Their commitment to my development has helped build my confidence, improve my communication skills, and has given me a platform to put my training to practice."
