Our Contributors | Sophie Mitchell

Since leaving The University of Sheffield where she obtained a BSc honours in Chemistry, Sophie’s analytical mind and attention to detail has seen her rise up to Assistant Manager. As well as making sure we deliver the high level of service our customers have come to expect, Sophie also takes great care in keeping the company at the cutting edge of social media with daily updates on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest as well as managing our Google campaigns.
A friendly, hardworking and grounded young woman Sophie has always been a firm favourite with customers, especially when they pop into our new showroom to chat about various options of flooring. Numerous interests mean that Sophie is constantly active, from her musical interests with playing the violin and piano to her eye for adventure taking her on cycling holidays across Europe. She is also a keen baker and the staff here at Floors of Stone just love sampling her cakes!
