Each month we meet a member of our ever growing hardworking team here at shoe-shop.com. You get to ask them your questions just enter your ideas below.

Here are you questions and answers to and from Lorna Hardie.

Where are you from originally?

I’m originally from Glasgow but have lived in York since October 2005. I moved down to live in with my boyfriend who is from York who I met at university.

When did you start working here?

I have worked here since January 2007

What is your job?

My job title is Buying Support Supervisor, and I do lots of different jobs within this department.  I keep in touch with suppliers to make sure deliveries are on time, organise shipments, add products to the website, help to proof read the catalogue and make sure all the details are correct, make sure we have all the photography samples for the catalogues.  There are always plenty of jobs to do and the department is very rarely quiet!

Where did you go on your hols this year?

I went to Scotland on my holidays this year, my boyfriend and I own a VW campervan and we toured around different campsites.  It was really good fun, we did a lot of walking, mountain biking and sightseeing.  I also stopped in Glasgow to visit my family and caught up with some friends.  I had a really good time but unfortunately it rained most of the time.

What did you do?

I think I’ve answered this above!

What do you like most about working at shoe-shop.com?

There are lots of good points about working here, for a start the staff are really nice and I have made some really good friends here.  Working in the buying department you get to see all the new styles before anyone else and find out about new trends.  I enjoy working with the different suppliers form all over the world and have had the chance to meet a few.  I also help out proof reading the catalogue so it’s good to see the whole process from buying the shoes to seeing the finished product in the catalogue.
