About GO SHRED

---

MANAGING DIRECTOR

Michael started out working behind the camera in Television, Film and the Music industry after graduating from the University of Huddersfield, but after 15 years of that moved on to the Shredding & Waste industry and has been in the thick of it for almost 20 years, with experience of working for one of the UK's largest shredding companies and then years of working for a small family shredding company at Director level.

In 2013 he decided to start Go Shred to bring the best of everything he learnt in security, customer service and also dedicate his work to help customers achieve 100% landfill avoidance.

He is a family man, and he loves sports - especially American Football - he also likes to ride and tinker with his vintage Lambrettas.

CUSTOMER SERVICE DIRECTOR

Belinda has worked in television, engineering, the NHS, tasting sweets in a sweet factory and selling antiques. In between that she is a Mum and a wife. Let's face it, she needed a rest, so she thought it would be easier to help her husband start a shredding company from scratch.

Bel will be the person who more than likely answers the telephone, does the vehicle routing, sends your paperwork or comes to collect your shredding. Bel loves to do customer visits so there's a good chance you will see her mucking in with the team. Away from work, she loves cooking, eating out and cups of tea with a nice chocolate biscuit whilst watching Films and TV series.

SERVICE TEAM LEADER

Gavin has over 20 years experience of working in the paper shredding industry in various roles.

Michael and Gavin first met up when they worked together at PHS in their shredding division, which is no longer in existence.

Gavin was part of the outstanding Dewsbury service team that won Depot of the Year on many occasions. We were thrilled to be able to bring him into the Go Shred family when we needed to expand further in mid-2018 and he has proved to be a huge asset to the company and our customers, with a strong focus on our Customer Service ethic.

Away from work, Gavin has a keen interest in restoring and riding vintage Lambretta scooters and is a very proud family man.

Away from work, Simon is a big fan of Leeds United, enjoys spending time with his partner, daughter and his dogs.
