Ricky began his career in Dawsons as a few weeks holiday cover back in 2000, and obviously found his calling which was lucky for Dawsons as he quickly moved up the ranks to where he sits now as the Director of Lettings. Ricky oversees the Lettings arm of the business managing over 40 staff within our 5 lettings offices, with customer service and experience at the heart of the departments agenda. Ricky is a lively hands on character spending much time within the offices, looking at ways to make the working day of all staff as enjoyable and rewarding as possible, whilst looking at continuously enhancing the clients experience. When he is not at work (which is a rarity) Ricky very much enjoys spending time with his family, traveling with his family and all things outdoors.
