Life At Jordans
Interview with Carol Welch - Marketing Director
What is your name?
Carol Welch
What is your job title?
Marketing, Taste & Development Director
What does your job entail?
Listening to what you (our customers) want, making Jordans products as good value and delicious as possible, while doing our bit for the countryside and hopefully leaving our planet in a better state than we found it.
How long have you worked at Jordans?
Under a year, but it has just flown by
Where did you work before you came to Jordans?
Green & Blacks, Walkers crisps, Boots, my local hotel
What other jobs have you done at Jordans?
Loaded the dishwasher, walked Bill's dog Louis, don't worry he stays well away from the factory.
What else would you like to do at Jordans?
Make it the best place to work, making the best products to eat and really make a difference to the countryside we live in and farm.
Why do you like working for Jordans?
We care about the stuff I care about. We have character and a truly inspirational story.
What is your favourite product we make?
That depends on the weather, if it’s warm outside I like Country Crisp Strawberry, if it’s cold then a hearty bowl of porridge hits the spot. I’m a simple girl at heart.
What makes Jordans different to other cereal manufacturers?
As our ad says, we are not your ‘run of the mill cereal company’ I think the only thing that makes us the same as all the others is the fact we make cereal, everything else is completely different.
What other products do you think we could/should make?
None, we will just continue to make our current range even more divine.
What makes you proud of working for Jordans?
We care about the same things that I care about.
Tell me something funny/quirky/unusual about Jordans?
We still clock in and out factory stylie. We spend a lot of time talking about bees, birds and butterflies. We know the farmers who grown cereals for us.
Have you ever been to Bill Jordan's nature reserve, Pensthorpe?
Not yet but a visit is definitely on the cards.
