When did you start working at Celtic Sheepskin?
I started working for Celtic Sheepskin in May 2007 so just over 41/2 years ago – wow, time has flown!
What do your day-to-day duties mainly consist of?
My day to day duties as Sew Room Supervisor consist of sewing and keeping up to date with all of the styles and sections of production involved in sewing our boots and slippers. I am also responsible for training new members of staff and making sure that the team is updated when we introduce new styles to the collection. As part of my role, I work to ensure quality control and efficient running throughout the sew room in order to produce stock to meet demand from our customers throughout the year.
What do you love most about your role?
My favourite element of my role is organising the sew room and working with the team as everyone is really lovely and work really hard to produce boots and slippers of the highest quality for our customers.
How long have you lived in Cornwall?
I was born in Cornwall and have lived here all my life.
What brought you here/what has kept you here?
The reason I have stayed in Cornwall is that I have always found it a beautiful place to live. Growing up in Cornwall I have spent many days on the beach and couldn't imagine not living by the sea. What could be better than spending days in such a relaxing part of the country with the wonderful backdrops that Cornwall has to offer?
How do you like to spend your spare time?
I spend most of my spare time socialising with my friends and with my boyfriend Ben, walking my dog on the beach or watching movies. I also love to bake and experiment quite often with different cake recipes.
If you could swap jobs with someone else in the company for the day, who would it be and why?
If I could swap jobs with someone for a day it would probably be Nick or Kath as, being our Directors, they oversee so many different parts of the company and I think it would be really interesting to learn more about how other departments and areas of the company work.
Which is your favourite item in the current winter collection, what would it be? It doesn’t have to be for you!
I love all of the Toscana coats and particularly the Hooded Toscana Jacket. It looks and feels so warm, snug and smart.
You’re hosting a fantasy dinner party and can invite 3 famous people to join you. Who would you invite and why?
First of all I would invite David Attenborough as I find him and his work so fascinating. I would also invite Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters as he is my favourite musician; he can play so many different instruments and also would have good stories to tell as he is friends with so many musical legends. Finally I would invite Michael McIntyre as I find him hilarious and he would certainly add a bit of comedy to the evening.
Finally, do you have one phrase that you like to live by?
“You only get back what you put in”. I wholeheartedly believe this to be true and always aim to give 100% to whatever I do.
Thank you Samm –great answers. Don’t forget there is an office full of willing ‘volunteers’ if you would like to test out your cakes!
