Commenting on winning the award, Mr Robinson said, “This is a great boost, as the business celebrates its 20 th anniversary this year. I have worked here for six years and have been a director for just under a year. “The first thing I did was enrol on the IoD director courses so I would know what I was doing. I was really pleased to pass, especially when the IoD told me I was one of the top scoring directors.”
