Meet The Team
Meet Roger Carr Roger is the Founder of Britannia Fire Ltd and with over 50 years in the Fire Industry has (almost!) seen and done it all! He is the creating, engineering mind of the business and while he has a keen personal interest in photography, he is usually busy inventing ways to improve our current product ranges! 📷
Meet Andy Spence Andy is Managing Director of Britannia Fire Ltd, alongside owner Roger Carr. He has been in the Fire Industry for over 30 years and has extensive knowledge on extinguishers, standards and approvals, including BS EN. He has regular presence on the FIA committee and a drive for delivering the best offerings and savings to customers with the P50 Fire Extinguisher. If you can't find him at his desk, then the next best place is on the cricket pitch! 🏏
Meet Laura Hutt Laura is the Operations Manager at Britannia Fire Ltd and has been with the company for 13 years, unlucky for some, but not for her! She takes care of the day-to-day running of the Ashwellthorpe HQ and helps to look after large customer accounts. When she isn't busy with her daily tasks, she's busy in the kitchen cooking and baking treats! 👩🍳
Meet Amy Bayliss Amy is the Finance Manager at Britannia Fire Ltd and joined the team in 2026. She is a ICAEW-qualified accountant and has extensive experience and knowledge within the manufacturing industry. Her manufacturing also expands into sewing, where she creates her own cushions and curtains, and enjoys spending family time in nature reserves around Norfolk and Suffolk 🪡🌳
Meet Lee Holliday Lee is the Factory Manager at Britannia Fire Ltd and after 18 years here almost knows how to manufacture a P50 with his eyes closed! He manages our production workforce at HQ and he'd love to manage Crystal Palace, but for now he'll stay as a fan! ⚽
Meet Tom McGonagle Tom is the Quality Manager at Britannia Fire Ltd and has been renewing our approvals and passing our audits for the past 10 years. If he isn't at our fireground testing new products then you can spot him on the racetrack testing his Abarth to get a new PB! 🚗
Meet Tania Santos Tania is the Sales Coordinator at Britannia Fire Ltd providing our customers support and ensuring paperwork and orders are ready on time to meet sailings and flights. When she isn't arranging freight, she'll be organising her own to visit new countries around Europe or going back home to Portugal to visit friends and family ✈
Meet Sarah Holland Sarah is the Sales Coordinator at Britannia Fire Ltd and keeps everything running smoothly behind the scenes — from customer support to organising deliveries. Outside of work, you’ll probably find her at the gym. Whether she’s hitting her fitness goals or helping the team hit sales targets, she shows up focused and motivated 🏃♀️🏋️♀️
Meet the factory team We have a team of hard-workers in the factory who manufacture our fire extinguishers. Ranging from machinists, welders, packers and powder coaters, there's nothing that this lot couldn't do with a combined Britannia working knowledge of 239 years between them! Richard, our longest serving factory team member, celebrated 43 years service in September 2025! 🧯
