Ancient House Printing Group understands the importance of succession planning and is focussed on bringing both young people and fresh thinking into the business.

The UK print industry is experiencing a long awaited revival and Ancient House is at the forefront of talent development. The Ipswich based company has embarked on a strategic development plan to ensure it is well placed to take the business from strength to strength in the years to come.

‘We have tremendous talent and experience within the business already,’ commented Micheal Underdown, joint managing director. ‘But we understand the need to complement our existing knowledge base with young people as well as fresh ideas.’

Ancient House has recently employed new recruits from varying backgrounds to undertake structured training programmes; this is in addition to the on-going coaching of existing employees, helping them to take a step up in their printing career.

Micheal goes on to say, ‘A blend of experience and youth throws new and unexpected ideas into the mix – and that keeps us, as a business, fresh and able to react to the ever demanding expectations of our customers.’
