We are delighted to officially welcome Jack Rowbottom to the Collier & Catchpole team.
Jack has joined us in the Ipswich yard, where he has already begun learning all aspects of the business. His arrival marks a proud milestone for everyone at Colliers, as he represents the next generation of the Collier family.
His grandfather, Roy Collier, founded Colliers as we know it today, and his great great grandfather, W H Collier, laid the very first foundations of the Collier business back in 1880. For generations, Collier & Catchpole has been built on strong family values, local expertise and a long term commitment to the communities and industries we serve. Having another Collier family member working alongside us is a meaningful reminder of both where we have come from and where we are heading.
Reflecting on his new role, Jack shared, “I am very happy to share that as of September, I have started a new position and career change as Yardhand at Collier & Catchpole. I am excited and proud to contribute, in at least a small way, to my family’s longstanding business.”
Jack brings fresh energy, new ideas and a strong personal connection to Colliers. More than simply a new team member, he represents a continuation of our story. A story that began nearly 150 years ago and continues to grow stronger with each generation.
We look forward to supporting Jack as he develops his knowledge across the yard and wider business, learning the values, standards and service that have shaped Collier & Catchpole for decades. Here’s to this exciting new chapter and to building a future that honours our past. Welcome aboard, Jack. It is great to have you with us.
