The team have been hugely welcoming and there’s plenty of opportunity and flexibility for me to grow my skills and build up my own client-base in a geographical area and industry I know well. Having joined Ringtons from a small business, it’s been phenomenal to see how advanced the Ringtons factory is and just how much precision and care goes into producing our coffee and tea. For a Business Development Manager like me, it’s a dream to represent a business which has first-rate products, a great reputation and outstanding customers service.”
