Store Manager: Jessica Dayman-Johns
Jessica joined Orvis in April 2017. She has previously worked with a range of premium retail stores in and around Bath, working extensively one to one with customers to help improve personal experience in store. Jessica has grown up locally and spent much of her childhood exploring the Somerset wilderness, which she does these days with her two lovely dogs. She is very enthusiastic about Orvis product and is a welcome addition to the store.
Assistant Manager: Alex Hayward
Alex joins the Bath team having worked at Bakewell for over 6 years. He is an enthusiastic Fly Fisherman and has been fishing for as long as he could walk, so is happy to advise anyone and everyone. When he’s not in-store he’ll be out fishing and is always open to feedback on the best local spots to go. Alex has a passion for all things Orvis and is a great Brand Ambassador for the store – we’re pretty sure he has a casting shirt in every colour! We are so pleased to have him as our much appreciated Assistant Manager.
