I started my career with MVIS in February 2022 having previously worked in the parking industry for 21 years and started off as a Parking Attendant in the West Midlands. I am very knowledgeable in parking legislations covering 1988, 1991 and the Traffic Management Act 2004. I worked my way up through the sector assisting with local councils across the UK in the takeover of the Civil Enforcement from the police. I worked my way up to a Learning and Development Officer with a Level 4 Diploma in Teaching. In this role, I was responsible for creating and teaching accredited courses throughout the sector in ILM Management, City and Guilds Conflict, CCTV and Parking Enforcement. This would involve travelling all over the UK to different sectors including Rail, Airports, Local Councils to deliver these courses. As you can imagine with this extensive knowledge it is very rare that I receive a parking ticket and people ask me to help them with appeals if they have received a parking ticket. I felt that with this background it would be a good transfer of skills to work for MVIS with regards to highways and geography around the UK. I have recently passed my level 2 Counselling Skills course as I love to learn new skills and keep myself up to date with new ways of achieving the skills I already have. I am now looking forward to learning about my new role/adventure at MVIS.
I love to travel and now I am working my way around the world as I want to see as many countries as I can. Unfortunately, Covid put a pause on this so last year my partner and I rescued a dog (Teddy) and bought a camper van to continue our travels around the UK. My family and friends are a big part of my life and spending time with them is extremely important to me.
I am a very confident, approachable, outgoing person who loves life. I am part of the LGBTQ+ community and I love my chosen family. I always try to visit and support LGBTQ+ venues and Prides when travelling.
Starting with the company at the beginning of June 2023, I was ready to continue my journey in Customer Relations. I am happy to say that I bring years of experience to the team at MVIS and I am ready to make this a safe environment for the team.
I have worked in the sector of transport industry before having been a Customer Service Assistant for a transport and haulage company. I am certain that my years at the University of Lincoln doing Events Management have helped with my inclusion at MVIS.
Outside of work, I am renovating a house I bought in April 2022, we have been working on it for over a year and we believe it is really coming together. My parents own a pub and I like to help them with serving our loyal customers.
When I joined MVIS, I was eager to step into the working world and learn from leading professionals in the industry. Starting my journey as an apprentice, I’m excited to develop my skills in logistics and customer service while becoming part of a knowledgeable and supportive team.
Outside of MVIS, I teach children how to swim and stay active through playing netball.
As our London Depot Manager, you’ll often find me out on the road, delivering, servicing or collecting our VMS units. I joined MVIS in 2015 and since then have been responsible for the maintenance of our products, ensuring that our depots continue to run smoothly, helping us to deliver the products our customers need, on time, wherever they are.
As a Delivery Driver for MVIS, I spend most of my working day travelling around the UK to ensure that MVIS’ range of traffic and event management equipment is delivered on time. In order to achieve this, it is important to be dependable and quick to learn. Since working for MVIS, I have been developing my knowledge of our varied product lines and have proved myself to be a great team player.
Before coming to MVIS I had the exciting job of decorating shopping centres ready for the festive seasons, we would often go in overnight and decorate them for the next morning. However, there comes a time when someone is looking for their next challenge.
This is why I am excited to start my new role driving for MVIS, my job decorating gave me opportunity to travel the UK and bring my Knowledge of the Roads to the Highways Sector.
Nothing is better than the guarantee of coming home every evening so I can spend time with my amazing family, something this new job is giving me.
I am looking forward to working with the team at MVIS!
