Bio
Stephen Parry
When I think about Nick - I think of all the good and very experienced technical and Business development managers that I have worked with in the pressure sensitive self-adhesive label industry. Nick is amongst the very best of them. He shows all the people around him (including his client’s) huge respect and in return gains their trust and loyalty very quickly. He is honest, polite and calm in difficult situations, tough when needed and steadfastly professional at all times. I learned many good values from Nick during the time we worked together. I would recommend him to anybody who requires a technical professional who is widely respected and trusted. More than that, he is a gentleman and first class person

Nick is motivated and hard working, he shows enthusiasm and will face any challenge put before him in an assertive and professional way.
