Meet the Team

“Doing something that genuinely makes a difference to people's lives is a huge part of my job satisfaction. Outside work I like to spend time with the family in the park, playing games or getting out into the lovely Shropshire countryside. I once ran 3 Language Schools in central Moscow. ”

“I'm responsible for the day to day operation of the factory and, after our founder, I'm the longest serving member of the team with over 27 years under my belt. Outside of work I enjoy walking in the woods and my favourite food is prawns.”

“I've been with Tough since autumn 2017. Apart from the wonderful people and lovely Shropshire countryside, it's a genuinely great company. Outside of work I can be found walking the spaniel, sitting in the stands at Molineux, playing bowls or relaxing at my mobile home in Wales. I am partial to Nepalese food and chocolate.”

“I've been with Tough since 2005 and love the team spirit here. Outside work you'd find me searching for rare and antiquarian books or enjoying dim sum. I also happen to be an air rifle crack shot!”

“I've been with Tough since 2013 and liaise with customers to achieve the best possible furniture solution. ”

“Tough is a great forward thinking, innovative company to work for in a lovely part of the UK. I like to spend my spare time outdoors sailing or mountain biking and generally any sport that involves sitting down.”

“The best thing about working at Tough is it's such a friendly, family run company. When I'm not working I enjoy running, watching movies and crafting.”

“I work in Design & Marketing. Outside of work I can be found playing football or tinkering with bikes. At the age of 6 I spent a week living on the River Amazon! ”

“I look after Tough's CRM System, support the Sales Team and put together our monthly newsletters. Outside work, when I'm not acting as a taxi to my 3 kids I try and keep fit by running. ”

“The best thing about working for Tough are the lovely working facilities and particularly the new fish tank - I have named all the fish in there! Outside work I enjoy gardening ,singing in a choir and sewing. My favourite food is the tomato, especially in a Bloody Mary! ”

“I work in Quality Control & Dispatch and supervise assembly. Tough is like a second family to me. When I'm not working I like to spend time with family and quite like walking when there's a pub at the end of it! I once spent 4 years in Spain running a restaurant and bar.”

“I enjoy working with a great team of people here at Tough. I also enjoy speaking with our customers and being able to assist wherever necessary. Outside work I enjoy watching movies, spending time with my family as well as generally being outdoors mainly running or mountain biking! ”

“I've been at Tough for over 23 years. I often go out to customers and love leaving site knowing they are happy. Outside work you'd find me on my motorcycle, camping or in my workshop building bikes and fabricating metal work. ”

“I provide quotations for the bespoke side of the business. I love the friendly atmosphere at Tough and, when I'm not at work, I like going on days out or for meals with my family - just so long as they don't clash with any Liverpool games!”

“I prepare quotes, process orders and answer customer questions and queries. I moved up to Shropshire from Surrey in 2021 and outside of work enjoy walking, gardening and eating out. ”

“My role is assisting with pre-production design work. I enjoy the fast pace environment at Tough and working as a close knit team. Outside of work I like cooking and trying new foods and I love ice skating. I enjoy travelling and spent two months travelling around Europe in a campervan”
