Angela Smith

Meet our ‘Flower of Scotland’ - Angela.

She has worked for the company as Administration Assistant since June 2008, carrying out various tasks to support the team.  Her good judgment, instinctive people skills, attention to detail and “easy to get along with” personality are just a few of her many qualities. Her background ranges from Administration Assistant in various sectors to 14 years in the airline industry where customer service was of paramount importance.  Her duties ranged from Passenger Agent to Station Manager of a Canadian Airline. Airline shift work and motherhood became problematic, hence the reason for a complete change of career. 

Out of work she is busy looking after her 5 year old son Josh and her husband Stuart.  She enjoys socializing, cooking, reading and gardening.  
At 5ft 1½, it's true – that the best things come in small packages!

Suzanne O'Brien

Suzanne is responsible for the administration of the temp division here at Cento, she has 10 years plus Administration, PA and sage accounts experience.  With her extensive knowledge and Administration background she is a valued member of the team.
Suzanne believes that on going personal improvement and training is vital to her working needs and has over the past 10 years taken every opportunity to “learn something new”. 

After being introduced to sage accounts she has completed a computerised bookkeeping course and after having three children has completed a counselling for beginners course (unsure as to whether that is to help her or her children!)
Out of work Suzanne is kept very busy with her children and has only recently learnt the rules to football, her boys insisted it was a must.  As football is often the topic of conversation in the office we at Cento would probably agree.
