“I started my journey with Cable Melbourne in 2017. When I started with the company I met Georgie (Director) and Allyce (Planning Manager) on my first day. They both had such passion and enthusiasm and they instilled great confidence in me that St Ives would be a positive place to work. It is always so exciting to unpack those first boxes of each new range. I love being part of Cable Melbourne.” Mandy – Store Manager St Ives.
