JOHN - Key Persons
Amy uses her background in Project Management to keep us all on track and ensure our office runs smoothly. While making sure we are compliant with all safeguarding and H&S matters, when she's not telling us off for printing single sided in colour, she's running about after her son, labrador and 4 chickens.
Having joined us at just 16 years old, Darren is another long serving member of the team with a wide range of transferrable skills. He's an excellent plumber, now training to become a Gas Engineer, shadowing our Mechanical and Electrical teams.
It feels as though Jordan has been with us forever. That's because he has - Joining us at just 14; he was one of the first to join our apprenticeship programme straight from school. Shadowing almost every trade along the way and he's worked (talked?!) his way up, and is now a qualified Gas Engineer, mentoring our more junior members of the team.
Our Electrical prodigy; Justin joined our apprenticeship programme 2023. Learning on the job with college day release, his M&E skills are progressing nicely. We've been incredibly impressed at his ability to tolerate working with Richard and would like to think his motorbike has raised our street cred a little.
Having already gained his NVQ level 2 in plumbing and heating at Reading college, Kyle joined as an improver plumber in 2021. Kyle threw himself into our training programme, blowing us away with how quickly he passed his gas exams to become our youngest ever qualified Gas Engineer at just 20.
Paul joined JM&CO in 2015 bringing along 30 years of commercial plumbing, gas and heating experience. He now fulfils the role of Managing Director along with keenly running our Mechanical and Gas Maintenance and Project Management. Paul's hair has gone from black to grey in the time he's been with us but claims this proves he is experienced!
Peter works with our clients to ensure the smooth operation of their preventative and reactive maintenance. Along with assisting our clients in his capacity as a trained fire door inspector, he's built very good relationships with clients and colleagues alike, leading his team to ensure a continuity of excellent service. Having recently moved house, Peter has become somewhat of an expert in assembling flat packed furniture also.
Priska is a QBE Finance Manager with a wealth of experience from Switzerland, still trying to understand the British humour… Priska joined us in 2022 initially as maternity cover but quickly realising we couldn't be without her, we snapped her up and she's now a
permanent member of the team. When not at work, Priska is an avid skier and gym member.
Having run his own successful business for 25 years and carrying out contract works for us, we finally managed to convince Richard to join the JM&CO team full time in 2022, bringing with him 40 years of valuable experience. He really knows his stuff when it comes to Electrical services but our main reason for hiring him was so we could brag about having a 5th Dan black belt onboard.
Our resident vegan, aka 'hummus'. Sean contracted for us for 3 years before joining JM&CO on a permanent basis in 2018. Sean soon became an asset to our team, acing all of the training we threw at him. He's now a qualified commercial gas engineer, specialising in all things HVAC.
Aka ‘Lights'. The longest servicing member of the team, there's nothing Steve isn't capable of. We're not really sure what his speciality is these days but he's been mentor to almost all of the JM&CO team over the years. If you're stuck on a job, Steve's your man.
