🌱 After an incredible 30 years with RoseDowns. Jeff Pick Retires
🌱 After an incredible 30 years with RoseDowns, we say a fond farewell to Jeff Pick as he begins his well-earned retirement.
Jeff has been a key part of our engineering team, working as a Commissioning Engineer and travelling across the globe to support our customers. His technical expertise, dedication, and willingness to go the extra mile have made a lasting impact—not just on our projects, but on everyone who has had the pleasure of working with him.
When he’s not been on site, Jeff has been busy at home in his garden, growing fresh produce a passion we’re sure will now take centre stage in his retirement. Thank you, Jeff, for your hard work, loyalty, and the many years of service you’ve given to RoseDowns. We wish you all the very best for the future—enjoy the extra time doing what you love!🌿
