After being part of the Academy from the very beginning, our Ellie is retiring 💐

She’s been the calm in the chaos – keeping us organised and on track.

We will miss her more than words can say, but we wish her every happiness in her next chapter.

If you have a message for Ellie, we’d love for you to share it below 💙

Meet Vickie!

Our Dulux Academy & Dulux Select Decorators Lead who’s been part of the journey since the very beginning.

As we celebrate 10 years of Dulux Academy, Vickie takes us right back to where it all started. From the early days , to how it’s grown into the community it is today, she shares the story from a front-row seat.

But it’s not all business… 👀

We also get to know the person behind the role. Is she an early bird or a night owl? What’s her go-to drink at the bar? And what’s her ultimate guilty pleasure?

Hit play, listen in, and get to know Vickie as we start to celebrate a decade of Dulux Academy. 💙
