"A certain type of person is attracted to Sofa Workshop. Across the board from new starters to the senior team, everyone enthuses about and works passionately towards achieving success. The regular training provided, enables confidence in the product we sell and product knowledge. Good customer service, coupled with good teamwork are some of the things that make Sofa Workshop what it is today. The ongoing challenges with an excellent support network means I am looking forward to continued success. Having been with the company in excess of twelve years, speaks for itself."
Sam has been with us for thirteen years, now Manager of our Bath store.

"I have worked with Sofa Workshop now for over eleven years. I started my career as the Junior Receptionist and Sofa Workshop gave me great opportunities along the way and I am now the Deputy Supply Chain Manager. Basically, working for Sofa Workshop is like working with your family. Everybody is friendly, approachable and absolutely passionate about what they do."
Sarah has been with us for eleven years, now Deputy Supply Chain Manager.

"I joined Sofa Workshop almost ten years ago and I've never looked back. I started as a consultant in Croydon and then transferred to the Tunbridge Wells branch. A couple of years later I was promoted to Manager of the Guildford store. The company is now expanding and earlier this year I moved to manage our new Maidenhead store. It can be challenging and that's to be expected in an organisation that is geared to react quickly to the market place. It's also very satisfying working for a company that acknowledges and rewards its people's efforts and acheivements."
Paul has been with us for nine years, now Manager of our Maidenhead store.

"They say time flies when you're having fun. The last ten years with Sofa Workshop have definitely flown. Why? Apart from my passion for the product, being driven to succeed and my belief in what we do, there is one overwhelming reason that stands out - the people. Every individual has a role to play in our success. I could not wish for a better group of people to work with, laugh with and grow the business with."
Angela has been with us for ten years, now an Area Sales Manager.

"I can remember the first day I started like it was yesterday, I was so nervous. But I couldn't have asked for a warmer welcome from my colleagues, who are now some of my closest friends. Everyone from customers to teams in other stores, the workshops and even the delivery guys were so supportive. Four years later, I'm still here and loving it. I enjoy literally creating sofas people only dream of. Sofa Workshop really is one big family and I hope I will be part of it for many years to come."
Louisa has been with us for four years, now a Consultant in Chichester.

"When I first started I only intended to stay temporarily, before going onto other things. Somebody mentioned to me at the time that people have a habit of falling for the Sofa Workshop lifestyle and culture and usually stay for years. I didn't really believe it at the time but four years later and I'm still here and I still enjoy working for Sofa Workshop, as much as I always have."
Russ has been with us for four years, now Manager of our Barnet store.

"The best sofas, the best staff, great company ethics and super customers. What more can you ask for?"
