Meet the Stinkyink Team

Stinkyink wouldn't be the company it is without the people that work here. These individuals do everything from answering the phone and shipping your orders, to sorting the accounts and wrangling the bits and bytes that make up our website. If you want to find out more about our team or just get in touch with a specific member of staff, you can find out everything you need to know below

The Management

John Sollars – Managing Director

Mr Stinkyink himself, John is the owner and starting-point for all things Stinkyink.com. He has built the company up, from it’s inception in 2002, on the pillars of fantastic customer service, great value and treating customers like friends.His belief and attention to being the best in what we do has lead to Stinkyink being recognised by both Investors in People (IIP) and also British Standards Institution (BSI) with ISO9001:2008 accreditation. Unbelievably, he can still be found helping out on the sales and customer service desks, sometimes even getting his hands busy in the warehouse. If you time it right you might get to talk to him yourself... drop a compliment in about his beloved Wolverhampton Wanderers and you might even get yourself a discount.

David Gough – Operations Director

After joining us in 2009, David has helped Stinkyink.com evolve into a far more efficient company, sustaining it’s near-doubling in turnover and orders shipped whilst showing significant improvements in stock management and reporting figures. Credit applications and company enquiries go through this man and he’s a tough negotiator, so we’d advise brushing up on your golfing chat before you take him on.

Roy Marsh – Purchasing Manager

You see that shiny ink/toner cartridge you’ve unwrapped? You wouldn’t have received that if it wasn’t for Mr Marsh. In charge of stock control and the sourcing and testing of cartridge ranges, we wouldn’t have such a vast and reliable catalogue of products without Roy’s expertise. What’s better, he still assists on select Help Desk calls. This means he’s never more than a phone call away from issues and always has his thumb on the pulse, making our products even more reliable.

Customer Services

Huw Carrington – Sales and Customer Service

If you’ve had any dealings with Stinkyink.com already you will already be acquainted with Huw, as he is the default contact for any form of Sales or Customer Service enquiry. He can occasionally be found writing for our Blog, and is author of the "What is 5% page coverage?" article. Huw frequently inundates the office with tasty cakes and biscuits, and if you’re looking for assistance with your printer cartridges then look no further.

Roy Hamilton – Sales and Accounts

The "Happy Scotsman" of Stinkyink.com, you will often hear him referred to as McRoy to avoid confusion with our Purchasing Manager. Roy H heads up Customer Accounts for our company, so If you have a 30-day credit account with Stinkyink.com you’ll be dealing with him. He is renowned for helping you lower your printing costs no matter your printing demands, and is always only 1 phone call away from solid advice. You can also reach him through our Sales desk, where he’ll do his best to help with any enquiry. Don’t let his jovial, friendly nature fool you - the man knows his cartridges... just don’t mention bonnie ol’ Scotland.

Operations

Sandra Wilson – Head of Stores

Sandra oversees our despatch department, ensuring all of your orders get processed, packed and shipped the same day you order, each and every working day. With the all-powerful authority relating to how many free-pens and business cards you get with your order, without her there would be anarchy in the stores... Well, maybe not that bad, but she definitely helps.

Joy Grubb – Head Store Assistant

Joy is Sandra’s go-to woman, with an incredible ability to get things done. A warehouse picking machine, the rate Joy can get through orders really is something to behold. With a keen eye for accuracy and attention to detail, Joy is also making herself a name as a website critique, frequently pointing Matt towards the latest issue to be addressed. Looking to get to know Joy? Just mention photo paper and she can talk to you for hours, she loves the stuff.

Julia Crampton – Store Assistant

Julia is our packaging machine. Though we do have literal machines for her job, they wouldn’t work half as fast without Julia pushing them to their limits. One of the primary reasons we manage to ship so many orders in a day, and adhere to our strict "ship the same day you order" guarantee, the stores would be a much more stressful and dull place without Julia there beavering away.

Marketing

Matthew Bird – Research, Marketing and Analysis

Matt is the resident statistician at Stinkyink.com. He actively writes on our blog, keeping customers up to date on latest market occurrences and helpful money-saving tips and user guides, coupled with his every day responsibility of number-crunching to find that next big opportunity. If you find something that used to not work on our site, and is now fixed, it is probably because Matt complained about it.

He has a wide range of interests including racquet sports, bike riding and amateur photography.

The IT Crowd

Robert Williams – Head of I.T. and Development

Rob is the whizz-kid of Stinkyink.com, and it’s him you have to thank for our easy-to-use website and fantastic systems. A crucial cog in our well oiled machine, it just doesn’t feel right when Rob isn’t in the office making something work that little-bit-better. In the unlikely event you have a technical problem with our website, our service team will kindly inform you it has been forwarded to our tech department, so you can rest assured that moments after you’ve had the problem Rob will be hard at work making sure it never happens again.

Andy Warburton – Front End Web Developer

In his own words, Andy’s job is to "make things look pretty", so if you like the design and feel of Stinkyink you owe this man a pat on the back. Andy is incredibly passionate about crafting awesome user experiences and is never happier than when he's up to his elbows in CSS, HTML and Javascript. Responsible for anything from fast-page loading to cool swirly-loading symbols, without Andy your experience of browsing and shopping at Stinkyink.com would be that little bit duller.
