Two more leaders of the future for CEMEX

Cecil Roberts and Callum McPhillips selected for company’s Leaders in Development training programme

THE start of 2014 sees two new Leaders in Development (LIDs) begin their one-year training programme with CEMEX UK. The programme, which began in 2013, is aimed at using young talent from within the business to create the next generation of business leaders.

Cecil Roberts and Callum McPhillips have been selected to take part in the 12-month programme, in which they will gain extensive and fundamental knowledge of the business and develop a multi-functional perspective. With this grounding it is hoped to create a mobile talent-pool feeding into senior management positions of the future.

 

Mr Roberts (pictured right), a graduate of the University of Hertfordshire with a BSc in Information Technology, was a transport planner based at CEMEX UK’s head office in Thorpe, Surrey. He has been with CEMEX for just over a year.

Mr McPhillips (pictured left) worked in the Planning Department for bulk cement in Rugby, Warwickshire, and has been with the company for just under two years. He studied psychology at the University of Wales in Bangor.

Both men have been assigned a mentor at senior level plus a programme co-ordinator to help implement an individual development plan. During 2014 they will spend time within each of the company’s business areas, including operations, strategic planning, human resources and procurement.

Last year’s graduates of the LID programme have now been promoted and taken up positions within the company. Richard Allen is in the new position of business manager for housing, Scott Jones is commercial haulage capacity manager and Tom Colley is working as a project manager within the Readymix business in London.
