Five minutes with: Christopher Shaw
What’s your job title and how long have you been at Loughborough?
I’m a Large Format Specialist and Post & Logistics Team Leader. I’ve been working here 34 years.
Tell us what a typical day in your job looks like?
Generally it is very busy as I have two roles. This can be challenging but it is also very rewarding. One day is never the same as the next.
What’s your favourite project you’ve worked on?
I’m currently filling in for a role within the department which is interesting and challenging!
What is your proudest moment at Loughborough?
I’ve had to adapt to a changing environment over the years from litho printing/digital printing to large format printing. I’m also proud of leading a team of four within the mail room.
Tell us something you do outside of work that we might not know about?
I’m a volunteer for Leicestershire County Council and an independent visitor for children in care and I’ve been doing this for five years.
What is your favourite quote?
“If your dreams don’t scare you, they are not big enough.”
