Meet The Team

Michael Hill - Managing Director
My background, a little over 25 years ago, was as a Design Engineer and Project Manager working in cleanroom, laboratory and contamination control projects. I have completed many high profile and complex projects within that time. Throughout my career I have worked extensively with and alongside Managing Directors, CEO’s and cleanroom managers and staff. Cleanroom Supplies was founded in order to compliment my cleanroom design and construction company. Cleanroom Supplies is the company I wish I could do business with if I were in your position. Our Core Values include superior quality and customer service - and that is always the standard we hold to.

Customer First is our Core Value, and Quality both in service and products is key to keeping our customers satisfied. Whilst the Company has always operated an internal quality system, Alice recently implemented ISO9001 registration for the Company. This was a challenging yet exciting project and one that we are all proud of. Alice enjoys music, playing guitar and photography in her spare time.

Chris - Warehouse & Dispatch Operative
Chris’ role is to make sure that you get what you need as fast as possible, whilst ensuring products are picked accuratley and leave the warehouse in top condition. He says of himself, "I have a keen eye for detail". Customer service is a high priority for Chris. He has plenty of prior experience in warehousing and order picking, making him ideally suited to his role here at Cleanroom Supplies. Originally from the Warrington area, he says “I recently moved to Cumbria and wish I had done it much sooner. I enjoy watching football. I also like to travel, and have been to many places around the world. In my spare time, I like to go for walks in the Lake District with family”.

Isaac Knibbs - Digital Support Apprentice
Isaac is the newest Team member. Having left school in 2024, he undertakes his first job! His role includes IT responsibilities, assisting with Quality Management, Health & Safety and Website Development. We already feel sure that Isaac is going to be a valuable asset to the business.
"This is my first job of any description, however I already feel comfortable given the friendly and structured nature of the workplace. I feel highly fortunate to be working here. I have not much to say of myself, really. I like England, but only when it's not dreary weather (which, as we all know, is a rarity). Despite living in Cumbria all my life, I usually speak in a stereotypically English accent, which a lot of people call 'posh', which could not be a more inaccurate description of my person. I have a bad habit of focusing on minute details, a coffee addiction, and a hyper fixation on Civil Defence sirens. I'm currently in the process of restoring one to its former, ear-splitting glory. My neighbours love me."

Kieran - Warehouse & Dispatch Operative
One of the most recent additions to the team, Kierans role is also to ensure that you get what you need as fast as possible, whilst ensuring products are picked accuratley and leave the warehouse in top condition. He says of himself: I was born and raised in Carlisle, and have spent the last 11 years working as a cycle mechanic. In that time I have been involved with customer support, sales and technical support. With working with 2 wheels for that length of time, it was inevitable that motorbikes would come up eventually. In my spare time I restore, design and build custom motorcycles, as well as taking part in race events around the country with like minded friends. I also enjoy hiking, music, good food, audio books and spending time with friends.

Penny - CEO (Canine Executive Officer)
Penny works part time as she needs her beauty sleep each morning. She arrives in the office each afternoon full of excitement at meeting the office staff she last met the previous day. Within 5 minutes she settles down to sleep again, only stirring for a stroke from a passing colleague. Duties including alerting co-workers when the DHL man arrives. Her special skills include giving high fives, turning around on the spot and sniffing out food. In her spare time, Penny enjoys food (all sorts), sleeping and playing ball. After a "ruff" day at the office, she loves nothing better than jumping into the muddiest, smelliest, stagnant body of water she can find.
