Meet Phil 👋

A stalwart at Pegasus Engineering & Patton, Phil has spent the last 17 years working in different roles for the business. From a steel erector to site supervisor, Phil made the move into the office about 10 years ago and hasn't looked back. Now in charge of procurement and our material processing team, his extensive experience of our industry and operating systems make him an invaluable member of the production team.

When he's not on the phone to suppliers, he is a keen cricket fan and an enthusiastic squash player. 🎾

We're delighted to have him on board.
