It's not unusual for us to take on staff who are over qualified for positions that we have available. Look at the management level and what you see is a group of very capable people. People having been at the sharp end looking either for a permanent lifestyle change or maybe a breather from the fast lane. This can work well for both of us. I'm not too sure which of the above categories Sarah falls into - but it's to our advantage that here we have a person who can get her teeth into the 'retail arm' of the Surf's Up! empire. "There's the shop. Imagine it's yours!" is a pretty accurate summary of the brief we gave her and already we can see a more controlled, driven, structured approach to how it's run. Customer feedback has been fantastic as has feedback from senior team members who appreciate strength in all departments.
So in summary, three main divisions of Surf's Up! - Beach, where we have Wailin supported by Sam and Kelly. Office, Rach has full control and then the shop, Sarah. Make no mistake, that is the dream team right there. Spirits are high - they should be. And as for me and Janey - it's great arriving in the morning just knowing that the team are on top of everything.
