unless the company's records have been deposited somewhere, it's unlikely that you'll have much success. You can always ask Derbyshire Records Office if they have anything about the firm.

his address was the foundry yard, so he must have been high up in the co.

What makes you think this, other trades living in Foundry Yard were:

Practical engineers / Carpenter / MIllwright

He described himself as a wagon painter, ( could be trains his children were botrn at Langley Mill)

1891 as a House Painter in Barnsley

1901 House Pianter in Wortley Leeds

1911 as a sign writer still in Wortley
