Meet the Stinkyink Team

Andy took control of Stinkyink early in 2016, ready to drive us forward, with ideas and creativity flowing. He is a keen spreadsheet man and footballer, a formidable combination. Specialising in goals and strategy, he heads up our our tech team and will keep Stinkyink ticking over at the cutting edge of website and customer service performance. He supports Liverpool, which we've all managed to forgive him for, so you can too. He's alright, really.

Kirsty runs the show at Stinkyink, making sure everything ticks along smoothly while always looking for ways to push the business forward. She’s hands-on, loves a good spreadsheet, and is fiercely proud of the customer-first ethos the team lives by.

Outside work, she’s a green-fingered nan who’s happiest spending time with her grandchildren, watching reality TV, or enjoying a glass of rosé (ideally with a curry).

Laura is an Aston Villa fan. We'll give you a moment to let that sink in and digest....... You okay there, reader? We were shocked too. But it turns out that, as well as possessing a superpower with numbers and finance, she's sickeningly good at golf. So, if we're nice to her, maybe she'll teach us.

A self-confessed nerd, Erin loves diving into epic board games and RPGs—often testing them out before they even hit the market! When she’s not planning her next move in-game, she’s out exploring the great outdoors, always up for a hiking or walking adventure. Her sharp thinking and love for planning ahead mean she’s got both the gaming table and the StinkyInk customer experience covered. Oh, and did we mention she’s a huge cat lover? We’ve lost count of how many she owns! 

Jade is part of our Customer Service team, helping customers over email and phone, usually with a cup of tea close by. Reliable, helpful and easy-going, she enjoys chatting to customers and making sure they feel looked after.

Outside of work, Jade loves reading a good book and taking her husky, Aries, out on adventures. Her calm nature and happy-to-help attitude make her a great fit for supporting customers and keeping things running smoothly.

Jo is part of our Customer Service team, speaking with customers, replying to emails and messages, and helping make sure everything runs smoothly. Friendly, outgoing and always happy to help, Jo enjoys being part of a lovely team and chatting with our equally lovely customers.

Outside of work, Jo enjoys spending time with her social group, listening to live music from local artists, and exploring interesting towns and cities. She also loves flying and even started working towards her pilot’s licence. That sense of adventure, mixed with her friendly and helpful nature, makes Jo a brilliant part of the StinkyInk team.

Mary is part of our Customer Service team, helping customers with orders, product queries and making sure they have the support they need. She enjoys helping people and brings a calm, practical approach to every conversation.

Outside of work, Mary loves hiking, travelling and exploring new places. That adventurous streak means she’s naturally curious, confident and ready to get stuck in, which makes her a great fit for helping customers find the right answers. Mary brings a brilliant mix of patience, positivity and can-do energy to the team.

If there's a job that needs doing, chances are Joy is already halfway through it. A key member of our Warehouse team, she's rarely standing still and somehow manages to juggle what feels like 14 different tasks at once, all while keeping everything running smoothly.

Joy has a brilliant eye for detail and loves getting to the bottom of a problem. Whether she's investigating a stock discrepancy, helping improve a process, or sharing her years of warehouse knowledge with newer team members like Ruth, she's always happy to lend a hand.

Outside of work, Joy is our unofficial gardening expert and is full of advice on what to grow, when to plant it, and how to keep it thriving. In fact, if you've got a mystery ailment, a dodgy tomato plant, or a warehouse question, Joy probably has an answer for all three.

Simply put, Joy is one of those people who keeps the wheels turning, and we're very lucky to have her on the team.

After starting her journey with Stinkyink in Customer Service, Ruth has now moved into our Warehouse team, where her organisation, attention to detail, and calm approach help keep orders flowing smoothly.

Before joining Stinkyink, Ruth worked in TV production, bringing with her a wealth of experience in planning, problem-solving, and staying cool under pressure. She was drawn to Stinkyink by our people-first values and enjoys being part of a team that genuinely cares about customers and each other.

Outside of work, Ruth can usually be found tending to her vegetable garden or spending time with her rescue greyhound, Paddington. Fun fact: she once played the cornet at the Royal Albert Hall, and her band came away with the winning title!

Developer head-honcho Ronan does very clever things with our website, which us mere mortals can barely comprehend. If you've purchased a product from us online, you'll have benefitted from his skills without knowing it. He also used to be in a band that played some big venues, but he's now happier in the far more glamorous world of printer ink.

Arguably the most important member of our team, our mascot Steve. Steve the cephalopod is crucial to the operations here at Stinkyink as he provides the ink for all of our cartridges. Only joking! However, he is crucial to our work here, being the smiling face of Stinkyink and a wonderful brand ambassador. Look out for him on our social media posts, he is becoming quite famous!

You lovely Stinkyink'ers, our customers, are as much a part of our team as any of us. We constantly listen to your feedback and comments, always looking to improve. Don't be put off by our (hopefully hilarious) team bios, we are a professional team always striving to be better. We have won many awards for our unrivalled product quality, customer service and speed of delivery, but we're always striving for better. You make that possible, so thank you.
