Ian Goodall

Professional Career

I worked on my family's farm from an early age as a herdsman, looking after and milking cows. I wanted to see more of the world outside of farm life and so worked as an independent HGV driver for a number of years, seeing a lot of Britain. I then decided to have a more settled life and trained to be a gas engineer, moving up in the company to where I was carrying out quotation works. This led me onto starting my own commercial plumbing & gas engineering company, for which we carried out the install and maintenance work for Gaunts Ltd.

Role within the company

I was asked to become part of Gaunts Ltd and manage the heating, ventilation and plumbing side of the in-house maintenance team. My role varies from day to day, which I like, not one day is the same.

What do you do with your spare time?

I am a keen cyclist and enjoy getting out on my bike as much as possible. I still help out on the farm from time to time at busy times of the year.
