Our Team

At Sharp, we understand that our people are vital to the success of our business, they are the backbone of what we do; it goes without saying that we value our people greatly.  We are fortunate to have a dedicated team who all have a can-do attitude and take pride in the work that they do.

We have a strong focus on Health & Safety in the workplace, ensuring all employees are adequately trained and competent in Health & Safety practices.

We are proud to have a very family-orientated and diverse workplace, with people from many different cultures and ethnicities.  Due to such diversity, we realised that at times, there was a breakdown in communication.  So, in 2020 we partnered with Upskills who facilitated a tailored training programme ‘Sharp People’ to help develop the communication skills of our manufacturing team.  The programme ran over a 24-week period with the aim to cement positive change and grow the potential of both individuals and our business as a whole.  ‘Sharp People’ also provided some upskilling for the team around numeracy, literacy and financial management.

This programme was well-received by the team with 100% engagement.  We will look to continue on with these types of initiatives to help support our people.

Ivan, the General Manager says

“We want employees to feel valued for the job they do, to have the confidence to make decisions and question what we are doing and why.  We also want everyone to understand our business goals and objectives and to be proud to work for Sharp Serviettes”

Anything we can do to help our people at work or in their everyday lives has to be a positive for everyone, we want to retain our people and help them achieve and grow.”
