Lucy Barker's 18-year journey at Go Interiors, starting as an Area Sales Manager and now proudly serving as the Depot Manager, is a testament to her dedication and commitment. On the other side of the spectrum, Steve Evans began as a Warehouse Operative and has worked his way up to become the Warehouse Manager. Their stories showcase the remarkable growth and opportunities at Go Interiors.

Building More Than Careers

During their time at Go Interiors, Lucy and Steve not only built their careers but also their families. Their heart-warming twist comes from the fact that their children, who weren't even born when their parents first joined the company, now work at Go Interiors.

The Next Generation

Meet Aimee, aged 19, who joined the Go Interiors team in August. She's already working full-time, gaining invaluable experience across various aspects of the business, from sales to purchasing and warehouse management. A true all-rounder in the making.

Bobby, at 16, and Ellis, aged 17, work part-time as warehouse operatives while continuing their education. Bobby is on his way to becoming an electrician, while Ellis is focused on a business career.


Proud Moments

Gerard Abbott-Drake, owner and Director at Go Interiors, expressed his delight at welcoming the new generation into the company: "We are thrilled to have Lucy and Steve's children join the Go Interiors team."

Lucy, speaking with pride about her son, Bobby, said, "I am proud of Bobby's dedication and hard work. He always goes the extra mile, and it's lovely to have him on the Go Interiors team."


Recognising Excellence

Go Interiors recently achieved recognition as one of the 'Best Places to Work in 2023' for medium-sized businesses by the Sunday Times. Their employees, who form a family in their own right, scored very highly in the survey's 'Recommendation to Friends and Family' category.

This accolade reflects the strong bonds and positive work culture that Go Interiors has cultivated over the years. The success of the company is not just a professional achievement but a family legacy, where dedication, hard work, and commitment run in the blood.
