Inverness Design Centre

I have worked for Pasquill for more than 26 years, having joined straight from school as a trainee designer to my current role as Branch Manager. Most of career has been focused on design and sales, but I was also involved in the operations side of the business, which gave me hands on experience in production, logistics, financial management and of course health and safety, which is our number one priority. My cross function experience is second to none and means I can truly support all of our customers and my colleagues across the Inverness site. Our experienced design and manufacturing teams based at Inverness service the North of Scotland for more than three decades. This allows us to tailor our services to meet and exceed customer expectations. The four key pillars of our site are Health & Safety, Customers, Communication and Teamwork, our focus on these four elements is what makes Pasquill Inverness one of the highest performing sites within the industry.

I joined Pasquill in 2016 as the Production Scheduler and was promoted to Production Manager in 2017. Previously I enlisted in the Royal Air Force and served 8 years, during that time I worked in all elements of the supply chain. Working in a fast paced environment helped me establish the ability to stay calm under pressure and problem solving skills. I also spent 5 years in the Oil and Gas Industry again in Logistics and warehousing before moving back home to Forres. I have been fortunate to have worked in all elements of the supply chain in a variety of different environments, both domestically and internationally, which has helped broaden my knowledge and experience. My role in the operations team is to help support the customer, contractors, designers, hauliers and everyone else in between, this is only possible with teamwork, communication, and the determination to manage our customers’ expectations to delivery not only a high quality product but also high quality service.
