Meet the #MOOcrew: Nick, Account Manager

Our MOOcrew are pretty awesome. Wonder what it’s like to work at HQ? Take a peek behind the curtain at a day in the life of a MOOster…

Nick Bennett

Hi, I’m Nick. I work in MOO Business Services  and I’ve been at MOO for four and a half years.

At MOO, I’m responsible for…

Looking after our business customers as part of the account management team. This involves a lot time on the phone helping people with their design and stationery needs.

I got my role at MOO by…

I started in customer service after an impromptu move to London from Sydney. After learning about all the lovely products MOO makes and understanding the brand, I wanted to move into a role that was more relationship based. Once an opportunity arose to move into an account management role, I jumped at the opportunity and have been helping our business customers ever since.  

My morning routine is…

A chat with workmates in the kitchen and 2 slices of toast with peanut butter (always smooth – not a fan of crunchy!).

A typical working day is…

lots of calls! I’ll chat to people about anything from rebranding their company to the finishes and production techniques on our paper. I also love a chat with the crew in my team in between.

Something people don’t know about my role is…

Account management is like being a therapist.  Many conversations about business card requirements turn into life chats and working through people’s personal dilemmas. It’s great to get to know so many people through my work and I really value this part of the job.

My proudest moment at MOO was…

Joining the business services team – they’re a top bunch!

The thing I like most about working at MOO is…

The people! There’s so many great people here and it makes coming to work a pleasure.

On the weekend, you’ll find me…

Eating and drinking with friends, searching for new music,  and buying clothes and shoes I can’t afford.

If I wasn’t doing this as a career, I’d be…

Involved in music somehow. It’s been a big part of my life and I’ve been fortunate enough to travel and perform in the past. I’m big into soul, jazz, funk, hip-hop, house and garage, and spend way too much time seeking out new tunes.  

The best career advice I’ve ever been given…

To find an occupation that’s in tune with your personality type. It’s worthwhile taking the time to learn about yourself so you can understand what occupation will work for you.

Stay tuned. We’ll be hosting a guest blog every week from one of our crew across the business to tell you what it’s really like to work at MOO HQ. Up next, we’ve got Ana, our Software Engineer.
