Mark Osborne

Managing Director

I have worked at Abbey Glass all my working life, 45 years in total starting in 1978.  I began as a window installer, then working my way through the company covering all roles gaining experience in all aspects of the business until my current position as Managing Director.

My motivation at work is simple, it comes from seeing a job finished and done well to a high standard accompanied by great customer feedback once installed.

Weekends are a time for re-charging my batteries, watching football and enjoying time with my grandchildren.

I started in 1982 as a glass cutter before opening our Burton Branch, Burton Glass in 1985 with only one employee and became Company Director in1990, today we have a team of 14 staff based at Burton.

I enjoy the everyday challenge and every day is different, I strive to improve every day to maintain our service, quality and focus with our oldest customers to our next.

Simon Law

Commercial Director

I have worked at Abbey Glass since 1993 starting off to develop the architectural window and door division of the company and then progressing to Commercial Director in 2010. Architectural aluminium and fenestration is my passion.

I enjoy working for Abbey Glass steering the Commercial department overseeing a variety of different roles including technical support, production knowledge and customer relations. I enjoy building and maintaining relationships with our customers to ensure that their expectation of excellence for quality, technical support, reliability of installation and unrivalled after sales service are exceeded. The longevity of the commercial department should prove to any potential new customers that we must be able to do this very well.

To be successful we must be competitive which probably explains why I have enjoyed playing squash and golf since childhood – and still playing today!

Paul Meeson

Commercial Project Manager

My first role when I joined Abbey Glas in 2006 was Project Coordinator, then in 2010 becoming Commercial Project Manager and 14 years later I still enjoy the challenges the role brings.

I approach each project with the same attitude to ensure each client knows that Abbey Glass have a strong commitment to service, quality and to detail. I strive to do & be the best I can and encourage others within my team to do the same.

I am a very keen cyclist, cycling a 30-mile round trip to and from work most days. This is my main passion outside of my two sons and daughter who are now successful professionals.

Dave Burrows

Commercial Team Estimator 

I started with the company back in 1997 on a YTS scheme as a glazer, in 1999 I moved to fabrication then trained to operate the CNC. I was offered the opportunity to join the Commercial team as an Estimator which is where I have worked since 2016.

I really enjoy the culture at Abbey & Burton Glass, this a great sense of camaraderie and everyone is super collaborative and supportive of each other. It makes work so much more enjoyable and encourages a more innovative environment.

Out of the office I enjoy watching football and socialising with friends.
