Kate’s Journey with Just Shutters
Kate was attracted to Just Shutters because of the high standards Chris and the team strive for in every aspect of their business, which fits well with her own work ethics. Although she started with Just Shutters with no previous experience or related skills, with Chris’s guidance she soon became one of the best fitters in the industry. Kate explains, “I get real satisfaction from my job. By following the system we ensure customers are confident in our skills from when we arrive right through to when they see the finished job. I love seeing the happy look on customers’ faces when they see the shutters fitted and finished.”
Previous Life
Kate was born in Poland and moved to the UK just over 5 years ago, choosing to live in Bournemouth because her friends had recommended the lovely picturesque location. Kate quickly started work in a production role locally, which she thoroughly enjoyed, but after two and a half years she felt she needed a change. After evaluating a number of opportunities she decided joining the Just Shutters team was perfect for her! She hasn’t looked back since.
“If you are passionate, motivated, good with people and keen to start your own successful local business in the South of England, Just Shutters is an excellent opportunity”
What Chris Rocker, Director of Just Shutters says:
“Kate is incredibly professional, delivering the highest standards of customer service and has immense pride in her work, the three cornerstones that underpin our business. Her desire to do the very best job and always put the customer first consistently achieves excellent testimonials, repeat business and referrals. She had no previous skills or experience relating to fitting shutters. She is perfect as our franchisee trainer she is a real people person and knows our systems inside out.”
