We chose to take over Spaceforme in 2013 as it was a growing Trade Supplier of Educational Furniture which was passionate about customer service, building strong brands and reliable relationships. It has been an exciting challenge growing the business on the already firm, ethical foundations - the addition of the EN Series following the closure of Remploy in December 2013 has been a great success, ensuring that this wonderful School Classroom Chair has been retained in the UK for BRITISH manufacturing and job creation.In June 2015 we purchased the KM Furniture range of Educational Seating, and were able to relaunch this great range of classroom chairs with the great service levels that Spaceforme has become renowned for.Website www.spaceforme.co.ukIn July 2015 we launched our new One-piece plastic chair the 'EN One' this chair with outstanding user comfort and revolutionary stack-ability is set to become the chair of choice for new educational environments.Website www.enseries.co

Working alongside school head teachers, bursars and business managers in the North West to help them get the most out of their building and maintenance budget and also their school buildings with careful planning and use of space. Using a handful of local manufacturers and quality tradesmen we delivered some quite outstanding results in the relatively short spaces of time that school holidays allow.

Running the purchasing and stock control for the current paper and envelope lines. After a year we added Educational Stationery to our offering and I had to source reliable suppliers for these, who could cope with the busy peak demand during the new school year, so we could maintain our commitment of delivering - the rights goods, of the right quality, in the right place, at the right time, for the right price...I also help to produce our personalised Educational Stationery Catalogue for distribution to the local schools, providing a single source for all their essential educational stationery and supplies.

Set up production in the UK for AFS an Australian permanent formwork walling panel which greatly speeded up the building of apartment party walls, and reduced the number of trades needed on site. I helped coordinate the production and site liaison for the first project http://www.southwarknews.co.uk/peckham-news/peckham-hot-property/00,news,11572,6153,00.htm
