Tom has been with Pyrotex for just over 5 years and has made himself a respected member of staff. Tom has always had a passion for fireworks and started off been a trainee firer here at Pyrotex. Very quickly Tom showed passion and quickly worked his way through the various levels and got offered the full-time position back in 2019.<\/p>

Tom has become part of the international team and has competed in Danang, Courchevel and Saint Tropez. He also preps all our big shows and is a great person to have on site.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Went over to Canada to meet my family and they are involved with the stunts and special effects in films. Since my early teenage years I\u2019ve always found fireworks fascinating and thought I\u2019d love to do something like that, so I contacted Pyrotex Fireworx when I got home and the rest is history.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

I\u2019m luckily enough to work for Pyrotex full time, on my days off I love been a dad and spending it with the kids.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

My first international display at Courchevel is definitely one I\u2019ll always remember, but it\u2019s got to be Vietnam and my first time in Asia!<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
