Meet the team: Our Specification Managers

Dory: The one that wins me the project!

Mark, Nick & Phil: Savoy!

Mark: It’s just a great new range that offers so many creative possibilities. Seven colours, two slim sizes, one finish – each of the shades go really well together. What more could you want?

Who or what inspires you?

Phil: My children, definitely. Without a doubt.

Dory: Everything. Inspiration can happen at any time. It’s everywhere and can strike at any time.

Mark: Dory inspires me to get out of the office every day!

Dory: [Laughs] Cheeky!

Nick: For me, it has to be London. It’s such a crazy, vibrant and wonderful city. Eclectic, diverse – it’s forever changing and it really makes you push yourself and want to be creative.

Dory: I’m a former designer with lots of experience in the textile industry. I previously worked at Milliken and prior to that, I was with JAB.

Mark: I’m London, born and bred. I’ve spent 20 years in the hospitality industry, and previously worked for Porcelanosa.

Nick: I’ve joined from Amtico and live over in Milton Keynes.

Phil: I’ve spent 25 years in the flooring industry and come from Milliken. Fifteen years of that involved specification. Oh, and I live in Cambridgeshire.

What do you love about your job?

Dory: I love working with forward looking, dynamic and ambitious companies like Johnson Tiles. I really want to make a difference and get great job satisfaction out of seeing a brand succeed.

Mark: For me, it’s all about teamwork. I strive to be a successful team player and achieve my personal and professional goals that I have set myself. That’s what I love.

Phil: It’s a completely new and exciting venture for me. I’m used to working in textiles, so this role is hugely challenging – and I relish that.

Nick: Nothing beats the thrill of pitching for a project and winning it. It’s great to work closely with our clients and see how everything comes together.
