My Background before Starting Route 1 was a sales representative for the Johnson Press (The Chronicle and Echo), working on the property supplement across their three titles and internet sales. I really enjoy the day to day work at Route 1 and being part of our dedicated team. I’m looking forward to “driving route 1 forward” excuse the pun, and “going that extra” mile for my clients. In my spare time (when I’m not playing taxi to my children), I love spending time with them, my husband and my friends socialising. I also enjoy exercise classes and taking my children to their weekly hobbies.

I have been involved in direct mail for 28 years and have been at the helm of my own business for 28 years and have faced some challenges over the years.  We are a family run business and we always approach every challenge with a can do attitude which has helped in us receiving many accolades from our clients. Starting Route 1 along with Jade and Lee was a perfect opportunity, as Mainstream being their primary customer. Jade working alongside us ensures that she provides a smooth and reliable service. I have seven grandchildren, 3 of which Lee is responsible for and I enjoy spending every bit of time I can with them all.

Husband to Jade and father of three beautiful children. My background is operations / production at Mainstream Direct so I have an understanding of how urgent jobs can be. I have a “ can do “ attitude and always give 100 % to the task in hand no matter how large or small. 

I have been involved in the courier industry since leaving school and started my career at Heathrow Airport.  My role at Route 1 is to establish and build up the European operations using a number of dedicated vehicles with experienced European drivers.  I enjoy my role as each day is different and providing solutions to our clients is very rewarding.

I am an energetic, ambitious person who  has developed a mature and responsible approach to any task that I undertake ,or situation that I am presented with.  I am an enthusiastic person who enjoys a challenge  and achieving personal goals. I try to learn  something new from every experience , because I believe there is always room for self-improvement. Working for Route1 as administrator has given me the opportunity to make use of my key skills: highly organised, detail orientated with a high degree of accuracy and also the ability to multitask. Route1 is so different from other work places  that I have experienced and  this is because each person  I  work with, not only chooses to be here, but they really love their job as I do .

I have previously worked in the motor trade for 25 Years and when Route1 express couriers approached me to join their expanding team it was a no brainer for me as I believe in their family values and also wanted to be part of a very forward thinking company.

I love spending time with my wife and taking my dog for long walks.

My background has always been administrative and having worked for a large corporation company for many Years I felt the time was right for a change. I have since worked for Route1 for several months now and have developed my skills further by supporting the control team which is something that I really enjoy. I have been made to feel very welcome into the Route1 family. I enjoy spending time with my family and socialising at the weekends.
