How long have you been at Armatile?

I have worked in Armatile for 12 years now.  I first joined at the age of 16 on work experience and haven't left since. My first 8 years were as part of the showroom sales team, and I have since developed my roll and have progressed to working as part of the contracts team based in the head office in Armagh.

Describe a typical day in your job in Armatile

I spend most of my working day based in the Armagh showroom meeting new build buyers. I assist them with their tile selections and liaise with them until their project is complete to ensure they get the best possible end result for their home. As a result, I work closely with builders and developers too on a day to day basis in order to meet completion dates and deadlines. I've been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to work on a number of projects with designers as a result of this. I also get to spend time out on the road keeping up relationships with current customers and trying to generate new business, so there's never a dull moment!

What skills have you developed during your time in Armatile?

Whilst working in Armatile I have developed a number of skills which have become imperative to my day to day work. I have developed strong communication skills as it's vital to be able be to work well as team across multiple departments. All team members should be able to communicate and share their ideas and understand each other, it's the only way a business like this can function smoothly.  My organisational skills are key in ensuring all of my work runs smoothly so I can effectively prioritise tasks and manage my time efficiently.  I also think it's important to be motivated each day in order to be focused on the task at hand and reach deadlines.

What has been your favourite project you were involved in at Armatile?

I have have worked on many fantastic stand alone projects including, bars, restaurants and cruise ships. However, I must admit I  love seeing all new housing developments through from start to finish. There is nothing more impressive than seeing the growth of a new development.  It's exciting to to watch a site go from 1 house to 150 or more brand new houses.
