Convenience store group celebrates career milestones
SCOTMID Co-op is celebrating the career milestones of four staff who have been with the convenience store group for more than 110 years combined.
Lynne MacGillivray started working as a ‘shelf filler’ at Scotmid’s South Queensferry store in March 1991, while she was still at school. More than 35 years later, Lynne is now a senior member of Scotmid’s HR team, having spent the past two decades supporting and developing colleagues across the business.
Kevin Lowe joined Scotmid in April 2001 as a regional business manager. During the last 25 years, he has supported significant change across the business, including major acquisitions, business transformation projects and the growth of Scotmid’s store estate.
While studying business and information management at university, Lynne Hedger joined Scotmid 25 years ago as a customer service assistant. What began as a part-time job developed into a career spanning store management, change management and major business projects. Today, Lynne is head of central operations and a member of Scotmid’s retail leadership team.
Margaret Anne Clark, Scotmid chief operating officer – services, said: “All four of these incredible colleagues have each made an outstanding contribution and commitment to Scotmid over many years.
“They have helped serve customers, support colleagues and guide the business through periods of growth and change. Their stories demonstrate the opportunities that exist within Scotmid and the difference people can make when they build a career with us.
“We’re incredibly grateful for their commitment and proud to celebrate their milestones.”
