Meet Helen, National Account Manager

Get to know more about the Eduzone team by meeting one of our National Account Managers, Helen!

 

Name: Helen Swann

 

Tell us a bit about your role at Eduzone:

I joined Eduzone in December 2019 as a National Account Manager. I’m your contact for, product enquires/proposals, quotations and special requests.

 

What did you get up to before joining Eduzone?

Since joining the education sector in 2006, I have enjoyed working in various sales and business development roles for leading manufacturers and suppliers of “hands on” educational resources. Within these roles I have had the opportunity to help design, develop and create some fantastic resources inspired by feedback from experienced educational professionals. 

  

How do you like to start your working day?

Most mornings I’m rushing around getting the children ready for school and nursery. I can’t function without a cup of tea so that always kick starts the day!

 

What is the highlight of your role?

Working in the education sector is incredibly rewarding. No matter which area you work in, everyone has the same goal, to help children be inspired, engaged and excited about learning.

 

What is your favourite Eduzone product/category/collection and why?

I love the wide range of products that Eduzone offers, everything from glue sticks to full nursery fit outs! It’s hard to choose between the different collections as there are so many fantastic products. If I had to choose, it would be between loose parts and sensory resources. These products are so intriguing and stimulating for young children, they really get those neurons connecting!

 

What makes Eduzone unique?

We are a small, friendly, team who pride ourselves on excellent customer service with a personal touch, that’s why I think Eduzone stands out from the rest.

 

What should customers look out for in 2021?

This year we should see the return of exhibitions! We will be exhibiting at the Childcare Expo at London Olympia in July and we can’t wait to see you all face to face again!

 

What do you like to do when you’re not working?

Outside of work I’m a busy mum of two so Saturdays are usually taken up with various kid’s clubs/activities. I enjoy walking and spending quality time with my family and friends.
