Get to know the Norwex Home Office Team!
With so many changes at our Australian Home
Office, we are pleased to re-introduce you
to our new Product and Compliance Officer,
Rachael Whiting
Q & A WITH RYAN PEDLOW
RP: Hi Rach, thanks for taking the time to sit down
and have a chat. You have a new role at
Norwex – tell us about it.
RW: Hi Ryan, I am very excited to become the
new Product & Compliance Officer for Norwex
Australia/NZ and being able to join the
Marketing Department. My role will involve
liasing with our Global Team to help provide up
to date information and resources on all of our
products, product ingredients, Compliance and
Social Media.
RP: Well welcome to the Marketing Department!
We’re excited to have you here. Consultants
probably know that you were already looking
after these areas as a part of the Consultant
Care Centre, how does the move to Marketing
change things?
RW: Now that I am part of the Marketing Team, I
can really focus on the areas of Compliance,
Social Media, Product knowledge and NoRA to
provide the level of service needed for these
areas to the best of my ability.
RP: You’ve been here for a number of years now.
Tell us how you got started with Norwex.
RW: I started with Norwex just over 4 years ago in
the warehouse as a Temp before being offered
a full time position. I was then very fortunate
to move into the office to join our Consultant
Care Team and have now been promoted to
the Marketing Department. I feel very lucky to
be a part of such a wonderful ‘Family’ and to be
given such great opportunities.
RP: As our product specialist, tell us something we
probably don’t know about a Norwex product.
RW: Well you will be hearing all that information
and more from me now that I have this role :)
RP: What do you enjoy doing to unwind, when
you’re not at work?
RW: My 2 boys play a lot of sport and I enjoy
nothing more than watching them. When I can
grab a bit of quiet time to myself I love to read.
RP: Funniest or most fun thing you’ve experienced
working at Home Office?
RW: While working in the warehouse we had a
big box we took the packing pillows from that
was always full. Danni thought that if she fell
back onto these she would float on top like a
big pillow bed. Well she didnt, and she sunk to
the bottom of the box with only her feet out the
top. She couldn't get back out and we all stood
there laughing at her and taking photos.
RP: Who inspires you?
RW: My sons inspire me all the time to be the best
mum that I can. To live life and regret nothing.
My 8 year old said to me only the other day
that “I need to believe, if I want to achieve’.
Thanks Rach, I’m sure everyone’s loved getting to know you a
little better. And once again, congratulations on your new role.
