Arrived in Pia as general dogsbody in 1999, and now that I'm MD, nothing's changed!
Got to being where I am by interfering, asking questions, wanting improvements and generally getting on everyone's nerves.
Spend my days marketing, being strategic, getting creative and learning!
My colleagues often wonder what I do all day, so hopefully they'll read this and find out.
I'd received a couple of offers but Pia was definitely the best place for a rewards-driven canine like myself.
My role requires me to spend a lot of time in strategic thought, which looks a lot like sleeping.

Pia was founded in 1985 as a typesetting co-operative designing and producing printing plates.
The first major publishing contract was to publish the BBC's In Touch Handbook, which accompanied the Radio 4 programme for people with visual impairment.

Pia grew and became Gwasg Pia Cyf, a limited company, in 1992, and the developer of the braille translation software, Braille Maker.
