Sharon Meers

Senior Receptionist & Client Care Assistant

"The three things I love about my job are the variety that my role has, every day is different. Also working with a great bunch of people, it’s a great team, I really don’t think there is anywhere else like PenLife and I feel so lucky to work here."

Work

Sharon previously worked for Lloyds Bank for 30 years before joining PenLife in 2021.

She loves the variety that her role brings. You’ll find her on reception, working alongside Drew and welcoming clients to the office.

Sharon also assists Carolyn with the client care side of the business, ensuring that our clients receive the important little extra touches. She also helps with the organisation of events and charity fundraising.

Rest and play

Sharon has two teenage boys that keep her on her toes! Her weekends are usually spent watching the mighty York City on a Saturday, and watching her lads play for their local teams on a Sunday.

Sharon loves seeing family and friends for a catch-up and some food. There’ll normally be a few drinks involved and then a few more!
