Smile for the Camera - Meet the Team at A Local Printer!

" I ask people why they have deer heads on their walls. They say it is because it is such a beautiful animal. There you go. I think my mother is attractive but I have photographs of her."
Ellen DeGeneres.

Miranda

Miranda Burn - Company Director

Miranda has 17 years experience of print marketing and business development with major national print companies. If she is fortunate enough to have any spare time her preferences include travel, holidays, plenty of those clever little mini-breaks, fine wine and gastronomic experiences!
Jeff

Jeff Morris - Creative Director

Jeff has spent the last quarter of a century working at alocalprinter.com in all of its various guises. Fully conversant in pre-press Jeff has developed the studio to the state of the art facility we have today.  Other than playing football Jeff likes nothing more than indulging his past-time of dangerous sports, including sky diving and off-piste skiing.
George

Owen Matthews - Production Director

Owen is the print genius of the South East with over 20 years experience managing printing machines small and large and we are lucky to have him.  When not on the golf course or football pitch Owen likes nothing more than creating those lovely stripes you get on your lawn when you have just mown it.  Personally I think that is a bit weird!
Roger

Roger Weetman - Warehouse and Finishing Manager

Roger has been working at the company for over 20 years and is responsible for the management of raw materials and finished product - plus ensuring each job reaches the right delivery destination! A very keen fisherman there is some talk that Roger has webbed feet, but I've not seen them so can't comment.

Nick Brine - Reprographics Manager

As well as managing customer queries and dabbling in design Nick has the demanding task of sorting out all the jobs that are approved for print and turning them in to printing plates.  Without Nick we would pretty much come to a standstill, so go Nick go!

Andy S

Andy Simon - Artwork and Design

Andy works in the studio and is always on hand to help our customers with their design queries. In and amongst he also runs our digital press, so he is kept very busy. Andy likes nothing more than trying out new curry recipes on his (long suffering) girlfriend, socialising with chums, dabbling with football, cycling and supporting Liverpool.
Andy F

Andy Fielder - Senior Machine Minder

Andy has been with the company for a jaw dropping 28 years. In addition to machine minding Andy can run all our finishing equipment as well!  Andy spends whatever spare time he has coarse fishing - his best catch to date is a 2.5lb roach caught in the local River Arun (doesn't sound like a big deal but apparently it is!).

Colin Brooks and Ben Kemp - Press Minders

Colin and Benny run our B2 press and are responsible for printing the majority of the work ordered via our website.  So you know who to thank for a good job!

Chris Hendy - Press Minder

Chris runs our B3 press and in his spare time is another extreme sports fanatic spending most of his time in rough water in a kayak.  Still, I suppose it keeps him out of mischief.

 

 Steve V and Steve H - Finishing

The two Steve's are responsible for pulling all of the printed sheets in to finished jobs - with folding, stitching and guillotining these two are kept busy all day finalising your finished product.

Peter Lovegrove - Commercial Manager

What would we do without Peter?!  Chained to his desk everyday Peter manages all of the bespoke print quotations and deals with numerous calls and enquiries.  He is often to be found on the touchline encouraging his junior football team to greater heights and achievements.

Jane Evans - Office Manager

The voice on the 'phone, Jane takes the majority of calls that come in to the office, manages all of the website orders and sorts out the payment process.  With a new baby and three year old at home there is very little that fazes her!

Lennie

Lennie Burn - Newshound and Guard Dog

Lennie joined the company with Miranda in 2003 and has been making a nuisance of himself since then. He can't type, answer the 'phone or make tea and is asleep most of the time - so his guard dog skills are also questionable. However, we all love him and so he is allowed to stay. In his spare time (which he seems to have an awful lot of) Lennie likes to dream about sausages and chasing pigeons.
