Aztec Oils is proud to celebrate a remarkable milestone: Ian ‘Pyp’ Pyper Set to Celebrate 20 Years of Service and Success.
Ian's journey began in the early days as a filler, but his thirst for learning and natural adaptability saw him take on a wide range of roles, from driving to blending. Most recently, he has been entrusted with managing the Print Room and Operations, a testament to his commitment and ability to tackle new challenges with skill and professionalism.
Jae Cope, a colleague from Export Sales, had this to say about working with Ian for two decades:
"I have worked with Pyp now for nearly 20 years, and I would struggle to find a more professional and loyal member of the team. His journey from a filler to covering almost every aspect of the business, including his crucial role in Operations, is nothing short of inspiring. Not only is he a reliable communicator with colleagues, managers, and directors, but he also handles customer communication with a level of professionalism that’s critical to our success. I firmly believe that along with Natasha, Ian has been vital to the growth of our export side. Without his valuable input, it simply wouldn’t run as smoothly as it does. He is dependable and very important to my role here in Export Sales."
Chris Bigg, Sales Manager at Aztec, reflects on how important Ian has been to the team from day one:
"I have known Ian ‘Pyp’ since my first day at Aztec, and he’s always been a great help. His versatility, moving between roles with care, professionalism, and a good sense of humour, is invaluable. He provides a crucial link between Operations and Sales, always ready with critical information when it’s needed. If I ever need advice or a second opinion, Pyp is the first person on my call list. As Sales Manager, the strong relationship we’ve built ensures that our customers continue to receive the exemplary service they expect."
Ian’s story at Aztec is one of perseverance, adaptability, and unwavering loyalty. He embodies the values we hold dear and continues to play an instrumental role in the company's ongoing success. His two decades of service have made a lasting impact, not just on the export side, but across all areas of the business. Here’s to celebrating 20 years of Ian Pyper—and many more to come!
