What is your best childhood memory?

Being on the pre-school play bus. I remember going down the slide. It was always great fun.

 

Describe your job at GRENKE.

I support resellers across various industry sectors to sell more of their products. I help their end point customers by providing payment over time options. 

 

What motivates you at work?

To always do my best. If you do a good job with diligence and structure, the numbers follow.

 
What are your most important business values?

Trust and Integrity. You only have one reputation.

 

What is one thing that instantly makes your day better?

Seeing my 7-year old twin girls. Life is so simple at that age and we could all learn from it.

 

Where is the coolest place you have ever travelled and why?

I have been very lucky to travel to many countries.  I love Italy and my wife and I were married in Tuscany. Rome is my favourite city as it has lots to see and do - good food and drink, lovely weather - I have been many times.   I like Sicily too and while we were there we found out we were having twins. So, Italy is very special to me.  I also love Thailand for its scenery and the food.

 

What is the last book (or magazine) you read?

I love history and I read a lot on Irish History.  The last book I read was “Hewn from Yew”.  It’s a hundred short biographies of ‘campus’ people from Newry where I was born.

 

What one piece of music would you keep on repeat and why?

I love anything by David Bowie. ‘Absolute Beginners’ was our first dance as a married couple after being together for 20 years.
