About
Sir Charles Garonne Renold J.P., LL.D (29 October 1883 – 7 September 1967) was a British engineer and pioneer of management science. Born in Altrincham, England, he was the son of Hans Renold, a Swiss-born engineer and businessman. He was Director from 1906 of Hans Renold Limited, the company his father started, later Managing Director (and Deputy Chairman or Chairman) of the Renold and Coventry Chain Company in Manchester 1930–67, which became Renold Chains Limited then Renold Plc. Renold was vice-president of Manchester College of Science and Technology, which was to become UMIST and was then part of the University of Manchester. During the Great War he offered his services to the government on the Manchester Armaments Committee. A public-spirited civil servant he remained concerned about industrial relations and the fear of sabotage. Like Mather and later Weizmann he was granted an interview by Lloyd George in which he promoted the activities of the Amalgamated Society of Engineers. Renold deliberately disassociated the workers from extremist peace campaigners in order to promote "the industrial issue".
