In celebration of Earth Day, we’re spotlighting Ian Moore, Corporate Sustainability Specialist at ProAmpac.

Ian’s interest in sustainability started when he was young and first became aware of the contrast between the pristinely cared for natural environment of New Hampshire and the more rugged urban cityscapes of Boston. This interest led him to pursue a degree in Environmental Conservation and Sustainability in college, where he discovered his passion for finding solutions to environmental challenges in the business sector.

Ian joined ProAmpac in 2022 and now spearheads ProAmpac’s annual Impact Report. For Ian, the most rewarding aspect of his job is the people and the opportunity to collaborate with colleagues who share his commitment to sustainability. He values the supportive and inclusive environment at ProAmpac, where he feels empowered to make a meaningful impact.

As an emerging professional, Ian also understands the anxiety that young people can experience as they transition from college into their first job and embark on their career path. He wants young professionals to be confident in their value and potential and, “to know with the corporate world and just the working world in general, everyone's doing their best. Do your best and you'll be OK.”

With a commitment to continuous learning and a passion for making a difference, Ian embraces the responsibility of shaping a more sustainable future. “Corporate responsibility touches every level of ProAmpac, and sustainability evolves so rapidly, everything's changing at a very quick pace, so there's always something new at each level that is a new problem to be solved."

We're proud to have Ian as part of our team at ProAmpac, and we look forward to seeing the impact he continues to make in the field of corporate sustainability.

Today is International Women’s Day- a Global Day of Recognition of women’s leadership and impact. In celebration of women leaders at ProAmpac we are highlighting Abigail Sawyer-Parker, a Packaging Technologist in our Grimsby, England location.
Abigail joined ProAmpac in 2021 as a Technical Coordinator after answering a call from a recruiter. Though she didn’t feel qualified for the job, she went to the interview and landed the role by excelling at the math test and demonstrating her keen problem-solving skills. After only six months on the job, her specialization in paper-based products was developing and unique to the site. She was offered a promotion to assist with the site’s paper product development and decided she was going to give it her best.

“Looking back, I would have never applied for ProAmpac because I didn’t think I had the experience. Now I am here. I sometimes wonder what I’d be doing if I hadn’t of gotten that message from the recruiter. I absolutely love my job and the opportunities I am given to constantly learn and develop myself. I get a lot of support and opportunity from ProAmpac, that are not just beneficial to the work that I do but benefit me personally as well.”
Abigail is grateful for the powerful influence of the women in her life. She works in an all-women department. Abigail continues to be inspired by her mother– a Microsoft World Champion - who was working full-time in computing, earning a degree in robotics, and running her own computing company while she was raising her children. “My mom taught me to say yes to opportunities; to just go for it and let yourself figure it out along the way.”

Next month, Abigial will be promoted to Product Development Engineer, and last month, she was recognized as a Future Trailblazer by Packaging Innovations.

“My advice is to push yourself. When I first started, I was terrified to talk to customers; now, I am leading our customer-facing academies. For my future, I want to innovate more and specialize in fiber-based products. A lot of people here call me the paper lady… and I love it because it represents that I am a specialist in this field. “

“A problem shared is a problem halved.”

Meet Richard Allam, Commercial Manager and Mental Health First Aider L3 at ProAmpac’s Lincoln site in the UK. Richard is an embodiment of boundaryless behaviour and thoughtful, conscious leadership. His 26-year career began in inside sales working with local farmers selling produce and potato bags. The business he started in, has grown from 2.7M to 27M, expanded in customer base and branded product mix, and in becoming part of the ProAmpac organization. His leadership style and philosophy are best exemplified in his wise insights on how to support his team members in an ever-changing world.

“The pace of business has definitely quickened. Systems help a lot but there is more pressure on individuals to perform and meet customer needs. I see people struggling and I try to listen to them and support them, help them succeed. For me it’s about giving people, not the answer, but support and help to find the answer. That’s quite important – I try to keep in touch with my team and offer support -give them a steer and say how can I help you today?”

As one of the two leads of day-to-day sales and operations in a manufacturing plant working with Richard Smith the Operations Manager, Richard decided to lead an effort to bring Mental Health First Aide certification to his site, alongside his Health and Safety Manager. Together, they received funding to attend training and implement a program onsite for Mental Health Support. The response from team members has been overwhelmingly positive.

“It’s another thing we offer to support our people. People come to and ask, ‘Do you have a few minutes? I’m struggling’. Or, a manager will say, ‘One of my team members is struggling.’ We then make time to talk and find resources. I’m not an expert. I facilitate helping people set a new direction and realign. A problem shared is a problem halved. We can share the burden together. Release some of the pressure together and hopefully make a difference to that person.”

Richard is driven. As he’s grown in his career, his mindset has changed. Now his focus is more on helping people to succeed. His leadership style is informed partly by what doesn’t work. He recognizes there’s a management style of telling people what to do, shouting orders but that doesn’t get much out of people. Rather it’s working together, talking through things together, and encouraging others as much as he can.

Great people like Richard make ProAmpac a great place to work. Join our team and work with people like Richard. Check out our current openings at Careers.ProAmpac.com, and make an impact with us!

In honor of Earth Month, ProAmpac is shining a spotlight on an exemplar team member whose work fosters innovation and sustainability.

Meet Ray Recchia, Innovation Manager, Sustainable Paper Packing at ProAmpac. Ray started at ProAmpac in 2019 after graduating from the University of Cincinnati with a Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering and a minor in Environmental Engineering. He leads strategic efforts for Sustainable Paper innovations from concept to testing to approval and launch for some of the most recognizable products in homes around the world from compositable tea envelopes to recyclable pet food bags.

Ray’s career with ProAmpac is rooted in a desire to have a positive impact on the environment and planet. “I always knew I wanted to something in an environmental-related field. Initially I was interested in water but as I became more conscientious about how much packaging is plastic and not recyclable - and when I learned about ProAmpac – I knew I wanted to be part of this effort to make more sustainable packaging so it doesn’t go into landfill but is recyclable or compostable.

Four years in and Ray absolutely loves it. “ProAmpac as a community is so friendly and nice. Ray’s boundaryless behavior is demonstrated in the way he works across departments from Marketing and Sales to Productive Development and across Divisions and sites around the world.

Ray draws inspiration from knowing that there’s always a solution. It might not be easy but hard work and determination will get you to finish line. And a big component of getting there is teamwork and collaboration. “Teamwork helps you think outside of the box if you get stuck in a corner. Having a really good team and team bond is extremely important to push along any project or any challenge.”
