At CU Phosco, people are at the heart of everything we do. Our “Meet the Team” series highlights the individuals who keep our business moving—from our operational teams in Richmond, Coleford, Ware, and Westgate, to our dedicated support services teams.
This time, we’re heading to Richmond, North Yorkshire, to meet Sandie Robertson, Commercial Assistant in our Contract Services Division. Sandie joined CU Phosco in March 2022 and plays a vital role in supporting the team and ensuring everything runs smoothly.
SANDIE, TELL US ABOUT YOUR ROLE AT CU PHOSCO.
I’m the Commercial Assistant in the Contract Services Team, working alongside Stuart Murray. My role is really varied—which I love! I handle everything from general enquiries and compiling estimates and quotations, to order processing, invoicing, and making sure the right materials are on-site when needed.
I also support tenders and proposals, keeping our accreditations up to date and preparing pre-qualification questionnaires. It’s a busy role, but a rewarding one.
Before joining CU Phosco, I worked as an administration assistant in the vehicle recovery sector.
WHAT DO YOU MOST ENJOY ABOUT YOUR ROLE? AND WHAT DOES CU PHOSCO MEAN TO YOU?
The variety! One minute I’m dealing with a customer query, the next I’m deep in a tender document. I’m constantly learning new skills and building on my previous experience.
To me, CU Phosco means Family and Future. In the Contract Services Division, we’re like a family—and that makes it a pleasure to come to work each day.
WHAT DO YOU ENJOY OUTSIDE OF WORK?
Spending time with my children and socialising with friends and extended family. I also love getting outdoors and going for dog walks in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales.
THANKS, SANDIE!
As one of the first friendly voices you’re likely to encounter at CU Phosco, it’s great to put a face to the name. Thank you for everything you do to support the team—we're lucky to have you!
