Our sage mentor for many years Robin’s experience shines through in all that we do. With a focus on our warranty and stock, Robin keeps a watchful eye and ensures our customers get the very best care. Robin’s passion is his football, on the touchline every weekend if he can be and in between family caravan jaunts. In his spare time also doing a first class job of maintaining three local football pitches to top league standards!

Our gatekeeper and company secretary. Becky controls the books and looks after all our supplier relationships and payroll. With the company since the day we started, Becky is also a full-time childminder and our cake baker extraordinaire!

Tom has a passion for his job that only someone who knows what it’s like to use machinery and cut grass for a living can have. Coming from a back ground of horticulture Tom knows a good product when he sees one and his ability to match the right machine to the job earns him huge respect from our customers. Keen Spurs fan Tom loves his football and sport in general.

Robyn is third generation Taylor in the business and has worked hard to gain a good understanding of the business. Working her way through all the departments and completing her two-year BAGMA management diploma Robyn knows how we tick and has a key role in the management structure.

Mark joined the company in 2017 and coming from a mainly 2-stroke background, he is our go-to man for issues with this kit. He also has a background in forestry but spends most of his free time on his passion of scuba diving, often instructing and training novice divers. Mark was warned about the ‘childish’ banter in the service department and has certainly fitted in well on that score and is happy to spread a few ‘digs’, at others, himself.

Standing at 6’4 in his platform shoes, Steve came to us from a slightly different background having worked out on customer’s sites on much larger plant machinery (Diggers and Dumpers/Excavators). Having a HGV licence he was also responsible for transporting the hire plant and new machinery to customers sites. His main role at RTM is in the PDI area of the workshop where he will prepare ‘new’ machines for delivery to customers or re-build used machines up to a high standard. Steve is the quiet man of the team and is often seen chuckling along to the workshop banter but from time to time does manage to get in a little quip himself. He is a keen angler and this year has been introducing his grand-daughter to the sport.

Andy has been in the industry all his working life and has a wealth of experience and product knowledge and having covered a sales area himself, in the past, is still the first point of call for many local customers. Andy manages the collection and delivery service that is offered to all our customers and also has the unenviable task of managing the company’s fleet including our vehicle and trailer pools, ensuring that we are all about our jobs in roadworthy vehicle/trailer combinations. The other part of his role is to manage the PDI requirements on new and used equipment making sure that the products leave our workshop in tip-top condition for delivery to our customers. Andy sees himself as a bit of a handyman about the house but might be known not to adhere to the old adage of ‘measure twice, cut once’. He can often be found down at our on-site lake, after work, in the summer months as he likes a spot of fishing. He has also enjoyed attending a few race meetings this year watching our landlord, Steve Hill, compete.

Steven is a motivated, intelligent young man and is an incredibly valued part of our team. Steven left school after year 11, followed on to a year in 6th form before coming to join RT Machinery Ltd and following in his father’s footsteps; Steven is our Apprentice Technician, currently In his third year at college. In his spare time, Steven enjoys anything to do with cars and getting out on the football pitch.

Justin is a very experienced ground care machinery operator and has been in the agricultural and ground care industry for many years. With a  career spanning operational and hands-on machinery maintenance, he has also seen the other side of the desk and has strong organisational and supervisory attributes. Justin’s passion is his motorsport and here too he is behind the wheel as well as maintaining and supporting the team. 

Callum is passionate about his work and will go the extra mile to make sure he gets those urgent parts out the door or the machine up and running. An avid scuba diver and a very happy driver Callum will always volunteer for that Lands End or John o’ Groats run as he just loves his driving.

Steve is a freelance web designer, graphic designer and illustrator currently grounded in the beautiful countryside village of Thornborough in Buckinghamshire. He’s also the founder and lead designer of GoodInk creative studio.

Outside of work, exploring the great outdoors is Steve’s main source of inspiration. When he’s away from my busy studio desk, he likes to spend time with friends and family.
