Helping people, whether it’s clients or colleagues – it makes me very happy to feel as though I’ve helped somebody.  That and being part of a great work family.

Can I remember that far back?!!  34 years ago I came here straight from college, when we were predominantly a steeplejack company – I was really interested in the business.  I’ve had quite a few varying job roles within the Company, there’s always an opportunity to progress.

We’re a family – we care about all our clients whether they’re large companies or individuals.  We’re friendly northerners and will always go the extra mile for our clients. Harrison’s has a long history as a family run business with a reputation for supplying high quality products and excellent customer service.

One of the great things about Harrison’s is that no two days are the same!   Usually processing orders, answering the phone and helping clients and colleagues with queries. Also working on business improvement projects and working on Standard Operating Procedures.

I’d love to work as a counsellor or therapist of some kind, I love talking (anybody who knows me will agree!!) and to feel I was helping improve somebody’s life in some way would be amazing. Failing that, I’ve always wanted to be a florist too.

Watching my daughter in her gymnastics training, looking after our large family of guinea pigs (we currently have 9).  Also sewing, reading and watching tv (and I also love ironing as long as I have a glass of wine handy!).

That I’m the crazy guinea pig lady and I fall over a lot!!  I think they’d also say I was helpful, caring and loyal – with a very strong attention to detail.

Negotiating costs with suppliers, purchasing print and overseeing the print room & sewing rooms.

Being part of a team, I have some great suppliers and love working with them.

It was something very different from what I had done previously. My main thought was who buys flags? Very quickly it was quite clear that almost everyone does!

It’s a family run business, we work as a team so that our clients get everything as it should be.

Checking deliveries are on time, checking confirmations, requesting costs from suppliers, ordering print, solving finishing queries and planning in jobs.

I think something to do with cooking but I’m sure Simon, my husband, would like me to be the typical farmers wife.

Decorating cakes for birthday party’s, watching films, helping my husband at lambing time on the farm and spending time with family.

I am sometimes referred to as the Oracle, I think I have a lot of product knowledge. I always say I’m happy to help if anyone is unsure of anything.

Preparing proofs for the sales team.  Once they go ahead I will prep the artwork for printing and get them printed.

I love design and enjoy seeing the finished product.

It’s a company with a great reputation and the leader in what we do.

We pride ourselves on producing quality, higher end products & also being an innovator in the industry.

I spend my day split between being behind my computer and in the print room checking the quality of the printed flags.

Maybe a travel photographer flying around the world.
