Meet the Team – Say Hi to Dane

By Hannah Fairclough, Customer Accounts Assistant

We believe a company is only as good as its people, and we know how to spot a good egg.

The talented professionals behind the delivery of Compucare are a group of dedicated, motivated and skilled experts who inspire Streets Heaver to be better every day. And we’re incredibly proud of them.

So, without further ado, meet Dane, Streets Heavers’ Senior Project Manager…

What was your first job and how did you get into your current field of work?

My first job was at Haribo making/eating sweets all day! I studied IT & Business Studies at university so it was a good fit with my degree. 

What do you enjoy about working at Streets Heaver?

I enjoy the fact that 2 days are never the same. Some days can be heavily client-facing and organising system Go Lives whilst the next could be problem-solving interfaces between systems. 

What never fails to make you sad or disappointed?

Leeds United losing (It happens regularly I’m afraid). 

What was the last book you read? Did you enjoy it?

Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari. Amazing read – Did you know the first settlers in America walked there from Africa? 

Which four famous people (living or dead) would you invite to your next dinner party?

Julius Caesar, Jermaine Beckford, Vic Reeves & Tim Minchin. 

Tea or Coffee? And how do you take it?

Tea – Strong, white, no sugar. 

What is your favourite joke or one you have heard most recently?

The only one that I can think of… 
Two friends go out for a curry. The waiter goes over and asks for their order. One man says ‘’I’ll have a Chicken Tarka please’’. His friend say’s “What’s that??” He replies, “It’s like a Tikka, but a little ‘otter.” 

What has been one of the greatest moments in your life so far?

My wedding day – sentimental, I know.  

Finally, if you could be any superhero, who would it be and why?

Got to be Professor X. Making things move with my mind!
