What Our People Say

Lisa is the Managing Director of Airmaster, the mechanical services specialist and has grown into a £9m turnover business. She is an active member of Women in Refrigeration Air Conditioning and Heat Pumps Committee for the last 3 years.

Lisa was part of the first national cohort of the Goldman Sachs 10,000 small businesses programme. She is an active member of the business community as a STEM Ambassador, a Freeman of The Company of Cutlers of Hallamshire and for 3 years she was the first female president of the combined Barnsley and Rotherham Chamber of Commerce.

Lisa said "After leaving school at 16, with a handful of GCSE's, I earned an HNC in Business Studies at Rotherham College and subsequently, a Masters Degree in Management Resources from the University of Hull as a mature student.

I joined Airmaster in 1995, having previously worked in the building industry. Initially, I worked in a part-time capacity to help out my future brother-in-law Richard (our MD at the time) with admin and bookeeping. As a business and staff numbers grew, I took on a full-time role. The diverse range of contracts that we were working on, particularly in the service and maintenance sector fascinated me."
