What is your favorite thing about working at Green-tech and how long have you worked here?

My favorite thing about working for Green-tech has got to be the industry, it doesn’t seem a very glamorous industry looking from the outside in, however, helping to create green spaces that we can all enjoy years to come you gain a real sense of job satisfaction from working on such projects, I’ve been working within the industry for the last 15 years at Green-tech I would never look back.

What made you want to work in the landscaping industry?

Pure fluke, I studied creative media productions at York College, then went travelling to Australia, when I returned to home, I got an interview at Green-tech, the rest is history!!

What is your favorite memory at Green-tech?

Ah wow, there have been so many, I’ve really seen it all after 15 years. I’ve got to say probably when we moved into our new offices at Rabbit Hill Business Park, that was a special time in Green-tech’s history I was proud to be apart of it.

Where would you say is a dream holiday destination for you?
