What an incredible achievement
A "dedicated and passionate" Mansfield man is retiring from an engineering company after 60 years of service. Mick Northing has worked at Boneham, a leading manufacturer and supplier of tooling and precision-engineered components, since 1963.
He later found out his uncle had previously worked at the business which started his interest in Boneham. Following an advert in the local paper, Mick applied for an apprentice at the company where he had an interview with the current director's grandfather.Mick was successful and has worked at the family-run business since 14th January, 1963. He says the major changes he has seen are the advancements in technology.
Mick, who is the Head of Manufactory in skims, has worked for three generations of the Boneham family. Current Managing Director Peter Bonham said: "There is no one like him. He is an incredibly dedicated and passionate man and believes strongly in the pride you put into your work is a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Mick says he feels "no different" now he is heading into retirement. He said: "Unless it has not sunk in yet, maybe when I am at home for a couple months it might but at the moment I don't feel any different to what I did last week, or last year or 5 years ago."
