Mike Parkes
Managing Director
Holds bragging rights as a former ‘Ironman’ triathlete but as age catches up more ‘Rusty Tin Man’, although still a keen Cyclist and Golfer. Preferred Coffee is a Cortado, accompanied by a Hob Nob the ultimate dunking choice.
Industry professional with over 35 years experience in coffee and vending sales, but still regards every day as a ‘school day’, and still enthused by new business development.
Having started the business with Valerie in 2016, holds the job title of Managing Director, but knows who the real boss is!
Valerie Parkes
“The Real Boss”
Valerie spends a lot of the little time she has off gardening with not only her own garden but two fantastic allotments to care for. Her working life has mainly been in retail which may explain her love for shopping and her great eye for design and detail.
She shares two grown up children with Mike, with their daughter living ‘up north’ in Leeds and their son travelling the globe currently holding up residence in Australia.
Her Favourite coffee is the small but mighty flat white and she doesn’t mess about when it comes to accompaniments often going between a chocolate brownie or the good old flapjack.
Pauline Northam
Telemarketing Manager
Like many of the team Pauline loves keeping fit with Pilates and can often be found in her own time in the gym, her other passion lies within gardening where she would give Alan Titchmarch a run for his money. Having just been made a grandparent to a baby girl Pauline is defiantly kept on her toes both in and out of work.
Being super competitive it’s no wonder Pauline has had a long and illustrious career in sales and her ability to talk to anyone brings so much to the team in work and refuses to be beaten at wordle or scrabble.
Her favourite coffee is a cappuccino with a nice simple yet sweet shortbread on the side.
