Meet the Team at the Oceanair North
Tony Evanson
Although Tony trained as a Refrigeration engineer it’s a long time since he’s been on the tools. You can often find him involved in technical issues and bespoke designs, as he can’t help himself. Tony started the business in 2002 and has steered the company throughout. He has finally admitted he can’t play golf and prefers 'putting' the miles in on his road bike.

Lisa comes from a rich heritage of refrigeration and air conditioning; her Dad has had over 40 years in the business and her uncle 30 years. Lisa started her career on the trade counter and has progressed through the ranks. Her enthusiasm and positive attitude is a breath of fresh air for her colleagues and customers. Lisa is well known for liking it warm in the office, we always know when summer has arrived, as she will be down to 2 fleeces when the rest of us are melting.

Adrian Fleet
Adrian is quite literally our resident magician, as well as a reputation for conjuring spares out of nowhere he is often working weekends entertaining parties up and down the country. New members of staff are frequently astonished by Adrian’s slight of hand. Adrian has been known to enjoy the odd beer and woe betides anyone who gets into a pub game with him.

Karl Anderson
Karl joined us here Oceanair a few months ago and it's safe to say he's fitted right in. Typically we don't see him often in the office as he's up and down the country meeting with customers, keeping them happy as can be! Karl is a people's person and is able to talk to almost anyone, so don't hesitate to give him a call!
Tel: 07790 011571

Bartek Kubisiak
Bart is Adrian's right hand man and the two of them have a few tricks up their sleeves. From causing havoc in the office to delivering parts, it can be very hard to track Bart down. Typically we can find him in the warehouse helping Richard with the heavy lifting or you can find him out and about on his bike, soaking in the sunshine.

Tony Holland
Tony joined the company early 2013 after 6 successful years with Fujitsu. Tony prides himself on first class customer service and will always go the extra yard to ensure the contractor gets everything required to enable a smooth project. Tony isn't office based mainly because every time he visits, the weight goes on and the biscuits disappear!

Reshma Jobanputra
Reshma is definitely the most sensible in our spares department, keeping Adrian and Bart under control! She has worked in various service industries and I think this comes from her people's person personality. Reshma joined us here after working with Fujitsu General for 10 years as a customer service supervisor within their spares department, so I think it's safe to say she's a bit of a spares guru!
