Meet Claire, Sales Development Manager, Pest Elimination
Claire joined our team in 2002, at the age of 18. At the time, claire had no idea what an interesting, rewarding path lay ahead. Six years of administrative planning and training experience in Ecolab’s UK Pest Elimination Division led to a sales opportunity and eventually to her current role as a Sales Development Manager. The one constant? Her commitment to own her future.
“The team culture is by far the greatest part of working at Ecolab. We have extremely supportive management and helpful colleagues who make coming to work a pleasure.”
“Every day, I get to continue to build relationships with the customers on my route. [When I see customers] I get to pick up right where I left off, whether it's from last month or last week. It's really awesome to build those relationships.“


Meet Kelsey, Pest Service Specialist, FRS
As part of our pest elimination team, Kelsey works alongside customers to solve problems. Here's how she says she's delivering solutions to help make the world cleaner and safer:
“I am your local pest control expert. I brag about what I do, because you actually have to do some digging around, be a detective and find out what’s going on.”
