There are no current vacancies

David is our big boss one of the initial company pioneers. Encouraging each and every Bloomer to be and do their best. He is a true print enthusiast, recognising print’s true potential in every format. David’s passion for the team shines through in every pitch and conversation. He’s a bit of a petrol head too …

Marina is the financial brains of the outfit and with David one of the initial company founders. Extremely efficient and organised in work and life with a passion for running and pilates. Mum of two and a second tongue of French to ease passage on the winter slopes.

Anthony is our Commercial Director constantly looking for improvements within the business to ensure our customers get the best quality in the fastest lead times. He is also planning the future of Platinum with 6 figure investments and lots of exciting new developments on the horizon. After spending 5 years living and working in the Middle East, Anthony is glad to be back home with his wife and daughters, Hannah and Abigail.

Constantly striving to achieve the best for her customers, Sam loves to keep busy! When she’s not out visiting customers, Sam is likely to be found running in the beautiful Yorkshire countryside or out walking her crazy Beagle Dottie.

Another runner! 5k's 10k's, Halves, Marathons, Ultras from parks to fells and over Mountains. Shotokan karate enthusiast and once a competitive Cyclo cross racer he’s now a keen chain gang rider. Most importantly a family man, supporting his wife or kids in their own events or just getting outdoors and dirty with the kids and bagging another mountain Summit or 2!

The pocket rocket (or so he thinks). Amiable and often trying to be charming :-) Andy loves true meaningful client relationships where his knowledge of the industry ensures the advice given fits the bill. A passion for horse racing and a bit of a Poet Laureate now his legs can’t carry him as quickly round the pitch.

Josh started his career in print learning the ropes in our estimating department and is now a valued member of the sales team. Josh is keen on music and gigging, always promising to bring creativity to the table.

Kept busy looking after my 2 boys, 3 boys including the husband! Love being outdoors, running, walking and chasing the boys around Harlow Carr. Also likes the occasional glass of prosecco at the end of the day. Chatty, bubbly personality and great at forging relationships with clients. Nothing is too much trouble, Emma is on the case!

Our dedicated and super experienced production manager Matt, keeps our printing wheels turning and everything running ship-shape and on time. Home is a nice new house with his wife, within in walking distance of the local bars – oh the freedom!

With 24 years of service and a move to production supervisor, Nigel is kept busy being a taxi driver to his 4 children and wife of 20 years. A Leeds United and Formula 1 fan keep his weekends busy and a promise of taking part in next year’s Ripon Bike Ride should keep him fit. Although we did hear a rumor it was just for the cake! He has an identical twin brother, but we have never seen them in the same room together!

Erika is the name and marketing is her game! Erika is a busy mum with 2 boys wreaking havoc. She has a serious shopping habit much to her husband’s annoyance especially taking up all the space in his wardrobe with her shoes and bags!

Trained as an Aerospace Engineer, but found himself working in Direct Mail and thoroughly enjoying it. Never happier than when surrounded by Motorcycle Parts and Saltaire Blonde.

During the week Sam can be found Supervising the Sales Office of Estimators alongside creating estimates, taking orders and liaising with our clients on any and all matters. After his working day and at the weekends, Sam is an avid drummer and plays competitive paintball across the country. We are just glad he can’t bring either into the office!

Katherine is pasta mad with a love of horror movies, the colour blue and anything Marvel. She is a keen horse rider but her true love is her Yorkshire Terrier Tess.

A highly experienced account handler and promotional gifts expert, always up for a laugh and a big fan of early doors with the girls. Loves adventure and time with the family, it has also been said she can talk for England but who are we to judge!

With more years of experience in print and direct mail than he would care to admit, Andrew brings a wealth of knowledge and a sense of humour to match.

Away from his work friends, Andrew enjoys spending time with his family and friends, and happiest sat round a huge table chatting and laughing with people, if there’s a few drinks involved even better! He also enjoys the odd (average) game of golf, probably more for the social side. With a wicked sense of humour, Andrew always tries to find the lighter side in most things, making him a true asset to Platinum.

Morgan has been in the industry since leaving school, mainly specialising in large format and POS.

Out of work, Morgan can be found in a river near you, white-water kayaking (or swimming when it goes wrong). If not that, then tinkering with his VW Transporter, volunteering or being a nerd with amateur radio equipment.

Katie makes sure everyone is paid on time and kept happy! She may sit in the corner at the back but that doesn’t mean she’s a quiet one – With a little one, a crazy beagle, metafit and running she is kept busy – a glass of bubbly always helps at the weekend.

A talented pre-press and Web2Print specialist, Paul is also a Man United fan as well as enjoying watching cycling and triathlon races. If he isn’t busy taxiing his son to football games and travelling the country with his daughter to diving competitions, then drinking craft beers and watching films are high on the agenda, along with a bit of DIY. He is also a secret Kylie fan!!!

Over 25 years in the print trade focusing on pre-press and digital print, Richard loves to spend his time cycling and swimming. He loves walking the dogs and watching films with his wife and three kids but seems to be constantly doing DIY.

Suzie is the office dog. She can be found snoozing under desks or sniffing round the canteen looking for a tasty treat. Just don't leave your sandwiches or wallets unattended.
