meet the team

Adrian Baugh, Managing Director

I am the Managing Director; the creative and dynamic driving force of the business and an entrepreneurial god! I don’t expect the editor to allow that for 1 minute so here goes with the truth! I try to know a little about a lot and have learnt not to feel threatened by my colleagues who do their job far better than I could.

Happiest when – The kids aren’t squabbling

Favourite Invention - “Ctrl-C & Ctrl-V”

Biggest Fear – Lying on my deathbed wishing I had…
 
 
 

Clare Baugh, Financial Director

I am the Finance Director – the one who controls the cheque book! It is my job to ensure that our suppliers (and my colleagues) get paid on time. I prepare the really boring stuff such as management reports and forecasts; the MD says I actually run the sales prevention office but as the MD is my husband of 18 ½ years I have learnt to switch off to his ramblings!

 

Happiest when – the kids are in bed and I can play my piano in peace.

Favourite film- Notting Hill

Party trick – I can lick the end of my nose.

Would rather be – eating jam doughnuts
 
 
Jayne Pugh, Sales Office Manager

What I do is anyone’s guess?! I oversee the running of the general office, look after the sales team and pacify the MD and do all the jobs he doesn’t do or won’t do. But most importantly book the Xmas party!
