Two PiGs in a Pod: Shelforce’s Howard Trotter
We are back for series three of Two PiGs in a Pod, and we are kicking things off with a standout guest. Host George is joined by Howard Trotter, Business Manager at Birmingham-based PVC-U window and door manufacturer and installer Shelforce.
In this episode, Howard shares his journey from life in the Navy, through working with timber windows, to spending 13 hugely successful years at Shelforce, helping to transform the business and drive award-winning performance.
Howard also talks openly about what makes Shelforce different. With 75 percent of its workforce made up of people with disabilities, he explains why the company’s focus is on being recognised first and foremost as a high-performing, successful business, not defined by who it employs.
To wrap things up, Howard steps into our brand-new This or That round, answering quick-fire questions at pace. Expect honest, instinctive answers to topics like coffee or tea, risk taker or risk manager, and whether he is more of a listener or a talker.
A great conversation to launch the new series, packed with insight, experience and a few surprises along the way.
