I joined Aegg, a relatively new challenger packaging brand, in 2011. My role ever since, has been to drive the growth of Aegg, ensuring that the people, suppliers and customers receive excellent quality products and service.

These experiences included various roles; in small & large food manufacturers for both retail and great brands; selling wine to the public; and the creation of food menus for large airlines, as well as VIP jets! I have worked in supply chain and love to wander around manufacturers discussing their best, and in some cases, improvement required practices!

As everyone including my family will tell you, I can bring any conversation back to my passion which is cycling.

Very different) which I am able to enjoy as I cycle it off.

How do I make our customers' lives easier

I work to a customers brief and sketch a few ideas specifically tailored to their requirements. Once we've found a design that the customer likes, I design the product on a computer to create a 3D model, which can be printed so that the customer has a physical model they can interact with and possibly request some changes, before progressing to produce trial moulds.

What I like to do in my spare time

I love to cook, and always enjoy finding new techniques and recipes to try. I've also been playing golf for the last 16 years, so on sunny evenings & weekends I'm normally at the golf club attempting to play better than the day before.

How do I make our customers' lives easier

My role is to keep the pots (and lids) rolling, i.e. to be delivered on time and in full. Intense planning and mass communications (with sales teams, customers, suppliers and all modes of transport) required. Quite stressful but totally worth it when I see the Aegg logo at the bottom of a great dessert pot on the shelves of all the major supermarkets.
