Our Team

This has enabled me to help with the development of our machines from both the technical perspective and their cleaning efficiency. I moved on to sales in 1998 which I enjoyed greatly and when the opportunity arose in 2011 to invest in the business with Debbie I did not hesitate. I am looking forward to many more years in this business which I love. In my spare time I have two lovely grand-children who keep me well occupied.

Working from our head office in Whitstable for so many years has enabled me to gain an overview of the business which I have been able to put to good use since investing in the company in 2011 progressing to completing a management buy-out with my fellow director, Kevin Scott in 2019. My aim over the next few years is to see the business grow and develop to even greater success. In my spare time I enjoy walking my beloved Whippets Daisy, Rufus and Amber.

I have achieved and progressed up through the business. I first started training in accounts, sales and marketing whilst also completing an apprenticeship and gaining broad knowledge of the company back in 2013.

Since then I have gone on to pass 3 courses, a Diploma in Book Keeping and I was also awarded my AAT Level 3 Diploma in Accounting in 2016. I am now a Member of the AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians) after being awarded a Merit in the AAT Level 4 Diploma in Accounting in 2019.

In 2023, I took great pleasure in accepting the position of Office Manager where I am able to continue to learn/progress and pass on my knowledge of the business with our team.

I enjoy spending time with friends and family, creativity, travelling and long walks along the beach or in the woods with my gorgeous Cockapoo!

I am a bubbly, friendly person who is very motivated and will always do my best to succeed and help others along the way.

This gives me the security and stability to enjoy my personal interests of playing local league level badminton and also travelling to live concerts and comedies.

Having recently re-joined Duplex as Central Business Development Manager I am enjoying seeing familiar faces amongst our customers , distributors and associations as well as making new connections.I am proud to be, once again associated with a company and range of products I consider to be market leaders in their field.

After spending eight incredible years in Australia—where I pursued my lifelong love of football, captaining my team to multiple cup wins and coaching along the way—I returned to the UK to be closer to family and take on an exciting new challenge. I’m driven by building strong relationships and helping customers find the best cleaning solutions to suit their needs.

Since then, I have had the opportunity to expand my expertise through roles with leading companies such as Numatic and I-Team, where I developed a deep understanding of innovative cleaning technologies and customer focused solutions.

I am now excited to start my next chapter with Duplex, where I look forward to embracing new challenges and making a real impact by applying the knowledge and experience I have built over the years. I am passionate about driving positive change in the industry and helping clients achieve the highest standards in cleaning performance.

It’s an exciting prospect with lots of opportunities with a family feel to the business.

I am looking forward to the challenges ahead and being able to make a difference with my industry experience & knowledge

I was then asked to become the senior engineer after three years with the company. I have immensely enjoyed this role, as it has given me the chance to help my colleagues and customers all over the country.

I am enjoying the opportunity to work practically once more. The Duplex team are friendly and supportive and I have learned a lot from them. When out and about servicing customers machines I love meeting new people in all the various sectors we cover such as care homes, schools and vets where as a bonus I also get to meet cats and dogs!

I was once in a band called Patchwork Quilt, it was mainly a covers band. (Badoom Tsh). Although, I love music my real passion is sport, watching is all I manage these days.  Football, Rugby and Cricket. Newcastle United and Newcastle Falcons are my teams of choice. Where possible I enjoy visiting National Trust sites with the family on a weekend. 

I joined the company in April 25 and have really enjoyed it thus far.
