How long have you worked at Scott Pallets? 7+ Years
How did you get into your role? Through a friend who already worked within the business. I was brought in as temporary cover, and 7 years later am still here – I enjoyed and still enjoy building a good relationship with our customers.
Walk us through a typical day at work: Building relationships with current and new customers to understand their needs and objectives, and look at ways in which we can improve on their current pallet solution; this will be achieved through regular meetings and site visits. During the day I will also be quoting on new opportunities, as well as looking at current designs to ensure we are maximising their potential. Other projects include exploring services that we can offer to help move our customers closer towards their sustainability goals. I will work collaboratively between customers and internal sites to ensure risk management is kept low and that we are well positioned for future requirements.
