Celebrating 15 Years of Megnajet

As Megnajet marks 15 years of creating reliable fluid management systems, we look back on a journey of innovation, growth, and a strong team culture. From our humble early days to where we are now, our success has been shaped by the dedication and expertise of our people.

To celebrate this milestone, we spoke with our team members about their experiences, what they enjoy about working here, and how Megnajet has supported their growth. Their insights highlight the collaborative team spirit and commitment that continue to drive our company forward.

The People Behind the Innovation

At Megnajet, every role plays a crucial part in ensuring we continue to grow and innovate for our customers and end users. From hands-on manufacturing to sales and technical leadership, our employees bring expertise and dedication to their work day-in and day-out.

Ollie Hill, Business Systems Coordinator (2 years at Megnajet) said:

“My role involves managing and maintaining key processes and systems that support sales and technical functions. My favourite part of the job is analysing data and providing insights that drive measurable improvements across the business.”

David Rigby, Manufacturing Technician (2 years at Megnajet):

“My day-to-day work varies – I could be building multiple products or working on a more complex build that takes a couple of days. I love the variety it brings, as I’m always learning new skills that I can apply beyond work.”

Adam Eaton, Technical Manager (10 years at Megnajet):

“I oversee all things technical, from sales to product development and technical accountability, to ensure the business achieves its targets.

“What I love about my role is the ability to influence decision-making across many areas of the business and witnessing these improvements first-hand. Seeing the direct impact of our work on customer success is incredibly rewarding.”

Support and Collaboration

Beyond the more technical achievements, what makes Megnajet stand out is the supportive and collaborative culture that we have built. Our strong team encourages innovation and problem-solving, to create an environment where everyone is motivated to succeed together.

Vadims Puksts, Production Team Leader (7 years at Megnajet):

“The team spirit and supportive company culture make Megnajet a fantastic place to work. Collaboration and innovation are truly valued here, and we work together to solve challenges and deliver high-quality products.”

Neil, Assembly Team (3 years, 8 months at Megnajet):

“I really enjoy working in a team where everyone is friendly and supportive. The hours also suit my family life, which is important to me.”

Mike Seal, General Manager (3 years at Megnajet):

“With a comparatively small team, we all get along well, making for a fun but driven work environment. There’s a constant desire from all employees to continuously improve how we work and the products we develop, which is great to see.”

Memorable Moments

Over the years, we’ve made lots of memories. From team celebrations to Lunch and Learns and product launches, these moments reflect the camaraderie and pride our employees feel in their work.

Adam Eaton:

“The first Christmas party after our acquisition was especially memorable. As with any change, it seemed like a bit of an uncertain time for some of our employees, but seeing the integration of new team members and the company being stronger than ever made it a special moment for all of us.”

Ollie Hill:

"I really enjoy the events we hold throughout the year. The charity events, quarterly celebrations, and Christmas gatherings stand out to me during my time at Megnajet, as they highlight the incredible group of people we have here - both in and outside of work.”

David Rigby:

“I always remember that just one week into my job, I was invited to the Megnajet Christmas party. It was a great way to get to know the team, and it made me feel welcome right away.”

Vadims Puksts:

“When I look back, it is the major product launches that stand out to me, and it’s the teamwork and dedication that makes them a proud achievement.”

Growing Together

Career development is another important part of our company culture. Employees are encouraged to expand their skill sets, take on new challenges, and grow at Megnajet. The opportunities we offer for learning and mentorship ensure that everyone has the chance to progress and develop.

Ollie Hill:

“I’ve been able to attend several training courses and expand my role into new areas of the business, which has directly helped my career progression.

“People at both Megnajet and Xaar have been extremely supportive - offering their time and expertise with a genuine interest and care for my development, often going far beyond the requirements of their role.”

Neil:

“I’ve gained skills in manufacturing that I didn’t have when I started, which has been really valuable.”

Adam Eaton:

“I started at Megnajet as a technician very early in my career, and have moved through a range of different roles to reach Technical Manager. I’ve been able to develop both my technical and business skills to help build a team that now covers a wide range of technical expertise.

“Megnajet has given me the opportunity to work on high-level business projects and represent the company worldwide for our global customers.”

With a strong foundation built over the last 15 years, we’re well-positioned to continue evolving and delivering even greater value to our customers.

Mike Seal:
