Tilemaster Adhesives’ Glynn Griffin has received The Tile Association Employee of the Year Award 2019. The coveted award was presented at the annual TTA Awards ceremony, which recognises excellence and achievement throughout the industry. Held at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole, the Masquerade-themed event was hosted by rugby superstar, Kyran Bracken MBE, with awards presented across 17 categories.
The proud Northerner – who has an accent as broad as his smile – started his career as a lorry driver. He then trained to be a tiler and later moved on to teaching tiling at Blackpool College, acquiring further skills. In 2015, he left teaching and became the first employee of Tilemaster’s Technical Team; an operation that still exists today, and is flourishing.
Mark Kelly, Tilemaster Adhesives’ Managing Director, said: “We’re absolutely thrilled that Glynn’s received this award! His bounce, passion and enthusiasm for life – and for his job – is something that rubs off on us all! His focus on finding a solution is at the forefront of everything he does – and his effort and hard work is truly, truly appreciated. Thank you, Glynn – and congratulations!”
