Monika Filova and Michael Riley bring experience, precision and personality to the expanding CoolLED production team based in Andover.
CoolLED, the Andover-based lighting technology firm, has welcomed two new colleagues to its growing production team. Monika Filova and Michael Riley join the company to help strengthen its assembly and dispatch operations, supporting the delivery of its popular pE-300 Series products.
Monika brings 15 years’ experience in hand-built production lines and is known for her meticulous attention to detail. Her role involves helping to oversee the pE-300 Series line, ensuring every unit performs exactly as designed – no flicker, no fuss.
The company said:
“Her attention to detail means our assembly team now has a built-in safety net for anything less than perfect.”
Outside of work, Monika enjoys family time, new travel destinations, ski trips, and relaxing with music and a good book.
Michael’s path to CoolLED is rather unique. He previously worked with birds of prey at the Hawk Conservancy near Andover, a role demanding steady hands and precision – skills that now serve him well on the company’s production lines and dispatch team.
If a parcel arrives in top condition, it might be Michael’s handiwork. Known for his craftsman’s touch, he’s also a keen archer and Lego enthusiast, often building models “well beyond the instructions”.
Both additions are expected to play key roles in keeping production running smoothly and orders heading out on time.
