After colour matching for a year, a job opportunity came up to become the teams next Chemical Waste Team Leader...and I am happy to announce I have been selected for the role and I'm loving it. Being more off the leather line I have been working with other sections of the business to ensure we are disposing of our waste appropriately and helping drive.

After serving my time in the dye house I had the privilege to progress through to finishing. I loved this as finishing is directly after dying so I have gotten to see, in incredible detail, what these roles entail and in perfect order. Very similar to the dye house however this role was more customer facing and I really enjoyed the fact I got to work with.

Once I finished my apprenticeship I was placed into a role that I really excelled and showed my strengths in. This was the development of dying hides. In this role I learned all about the different stages of dying leather and what effects can be made by changing the recipe. I learned not only to make my own recipes but to change others and amend percentage.
