CLINIC36 - Key Persons
Job Titles:
- Senior Hairstylist and Wig Consultant
I started my hairdressing career nearly 14 years ago as a student at Darlington College.
As a Yorkshire girl I worked in a small salon in the dales to gain experience. As my passion for hairdressing grew so did my ambitions which is when I decided to come to Darlington 6 years ago.
Miles is the son of Tim and Suzie, owners and founders of both Clinic 36 and Hairtopia Ltd. AT the age of 28 Miles hasn't always been with the company. With a love for the countryside from a very young age Miles at the age of 16 finished school and decided to go on to Agricultural collage, spending two years completing a degree level qualification in Agriculture with land and farm management. From this Miles furthered his rural career gaining employment with a family who owned and run a large country estate in Yorkshire. Having worked for two years on the estate farm Miles became Farm manager, managing one of the largest Pedigree limason cow herds in the north east, along with 830 breeding sheep and lambs, and over three thousand acres of arable land Miles carried on this managerial role for over ten years.
But in 2013 Miles with a young family in toe, decided that the time was right to diversify into a complete career change, having grown up around hairdressing, wigs and hairpieces all of his life Miles was not without knowledge, and since joining us has grown and expanded on this, and with help and guidance from both Senior members of staff and younger ones Miles has now added to all that he already knew and is now highly informed and capable of providing a competent and professional service, weather its information about wigs their styles and colours, to hair pieces hair accessories , fitting and all after care.
To say the least, a career change of this magnitude was always going to be a challenge but taking it all in his stride Miles has already proven to be a great asset for the company.
Miles's main duty as Manager of Hairtopia Ltd is the day to day running of the business both in store and online both of which are growing and expanding on a daily basis, with a massive stock to control which is constantly changing both within Hairtopia Ltd and the hospitals we provide to, this can prove at times a challenge which Miles deals with head on, with online orders in store consultations, wigs and hair pieces galore its all dealt with in a highly organised well maintained fashion.
