Today marks another special day for Apex, as Billie celebrates a decade at Apex Radio Systems!
From walking through our doors as a shy 16-year-old apprentice to becoming a confident and capable Service Manager, Billie’s journey is a true reflection of what it means to grow with Apex. Her decade-long story with us is not only about climbing the career ladder, but also about evolving personally, facing challenges head-on, and making unforgettable memories along the way.
Billie’s path through Apex has included three key roles – each one building on the last:
 – Business Administration Apprentice (Levels 2 & 3)
 – Office Administrator (alongside achieving Level 3 Team Leader/Supervisor and Level 3 HR Support)
 – Service Manager (her current and well-earned position)
Each step has been marked by hard work, continued learning, and the full support of the Apex team. As Billie put it: “Career progression is something that Jim and Ian have both fully supported me with and I’m forever grateful for that.”
One of the biggest shifts Billie experienced has been her own personal transformation. “I joined Apex as a shy, timid 16-year-old girl straight from school… The Billie that joined in 2015 compared to the Billie now is a completely different version of myself.” Her confidence has blossomed, and she’s achieved significant life milestones – including becoming Mrs. Singh last August. But she’s also experienced the bittersweet side of a long career, noting the retirement of Jim and the loss of Hilary as deeply felt changes.
Here’s to another 10 years, Billie. We are so grateful for all you have done for Apex, and we love to see you thriving!
Last week, we had the pleasure of having Athena Ivison join us from St Bedes, Lanchester, for her work experience. She had a great week gaining firsthand experience in the working world, spending time with each team member and learning about the role each individual plays in making up that team.
Athena is an aspiring engineer, so she spent pleanty of time with our engineering team learning about what they do, and gaining experience into coding radios and testing that everything worked. Her hard work definetly paid off!
We asked Athena a series of questions to get some insight into how her week has been:
Q. What have you been doing this week?
A. On my first day at Apex I was given a plan of what I would be doing throughout the week, this included an introduction to the company and to the different radios they sell; I was introduced to each member of staff and spent time with them discussing their roles; the main teams I spent my week at Apex with was in the service and engineering departments, in service I helped to inspect and clean the radios; and in engineering I assisted in coding radios and testing the repeaters; I met with Chris, who is a senior radio engineer, and discussed his role. Finally, I had a meeting about the future of Apex. This week I have also been putting a project together on bringing work experience into Apex, which I then presented to the general manager, Mark.
Q. What did you enjoy the most about your week at Apex?
A. My favourite day by far at Apex was Wednesday, when I helped to make the cabels and code the radios. To make the cable I cut rubber around the cable and added metal to each side, one side plugs into the repeater, and the other plugs into the antenna. Gaining this expereince helped me to see what real engineers do.
Q. What was the biggest challenge you had to overcome during your experience?
A. From the support I have received from all staff members during my week, I don’t believe I have encountered any challenges.
Q. What are your key takeaways from your work experience?
A. The key takeaways from my time at Apex are the skills and knowledge about who the company are and what they do, as well as the different sectors within the business.
Q. What new skills or knowledge did you gain?
A. Some new skills and knowledge I gained from my week at Apex were the different types of radios and their functions, as well as the different job types that are offered within the business.
Q. What are your career aspirations, and how does this experience fit in?
A. In the future, I aspire to become an electrical, mechanical or radio engineer. This experience has provided me with excellent insight into what it’s like to be an engineer, which will also look great on my CV when I consider future job opportunities.
We thoroughly enjoyed having Athena join us for her work experience, and wish her all the best for the future. You never know, she may be a leading radio engineer at Apex soon!
Today marks a remarkable milestone as one of our longest-serving team members, Nicola Burns, celebrates an incredible 30 years of service at Apex Radio Systems.
Since joining the team in 1995, Nic has been an integral part of our journey. Over the decades, she has witnessed – and helped shape – the evolution of the business, the growth of our team, and the expansion of the radio communications industry itself. In a world where career changes are common and companies evolve rapidly, staying with one organisation for three decades is an impressive achievement.
Throughout Nic’s time at Apex, she has consistently embodied our core values of excellence, integrity, and teamwork. Whether it was mentoring new colleagues, delivering outstanding customer service, or contributing to complex projects, her commitment has made a lasting impact. As Apex’s Quality Controller, Nic manages and ensures Apex’s compliace, quality standards, accreditation management, processes and audits to name a few things; however, over the years, Nic has worn many hats – “I can’t remember exact job role names as sometimes I was handling more than one at a time!” From Accounts and Admin to Sales, Marketing, Customer Service, and Quality, Nic has truly done it all.
Over 30 years, change is inevitable. Personally, Nic says the most significant shifts came with the emotional comings and goings of beloved colleagues – “Losing Hilary, Jim retiring, long-standing colleague Richard Heads leaving… those are moments I’ll never forget. And there have been so many people I connected with over the years who have moved on.” Professionally, two milestones stand out. The introduction of the Access Database by Jim revolutionised our daily workflows – “Everything was paper-based before that!” – and the eventual move to a new building after years in the same space marked a huge transition.
There has been no shortage of laughs either. Christmas parties, staff socials, yearly fancy dress fundraising for Red Nose Day (even one year Nic built and wore a Tank). Not to mention one hot summer’s day, when the sunroof of her Corsa was left open…and she came back to find it completely filled with paper shredding. “We won’t name names on one of the culprits! Apex has been a great place to work, and I’ve enjoyed my 30 years here.”
When asked what’s made the past 30 years truly special, the answer is simple: the people. “I’ve basically grown up here. I have deep feelings of loyalty and protectiveness toward Apex. It’s not just a job – it’s part of who I am.”
Ian Curry, Managing Director says, “On behalf of Jim, Myself and the entire Apex team – thank you. We are truly grateful for your loyalty, humour, mentorship, and unmatched dedication over three incredible decades.”
Please join us in congratulating Nic on this incredible achievement – here’s to 30 years of excellence, and many more to come!
20th May 2025, our annual golf day at Close House.
Set in the beautiful and serene Tyne Valley, only seven miles outside the centre of Newcastle and nestled against the north bank of the River Tyne, the 250-year-old Close House estate has been lovingly formed into two of the best courses in the country. On 20th May 2025, Apex Radio Systems’ staff, customers and suppliers took to the Colt Course to play a round on the stunning grounds for our annual golf day and dinner.
A fantastic day was spent on one of the top 100 courses in the UK, as we welcomed our customers from all over the UK. Blue skies, great company, questionable golf, but memories made nonetheless.
The day began with networking and demonstration opportunities showcasing the latest Motorola Systems two-way radios, the R2, R5 and VT100 body-worn camera. Not to mention our Hytera ShopWatch fleet of HP5s, and the nationwide two-way radio, the Icom IP503h. Our customers in attendance included facility managers, hospitality managers, retail security managers, manufacturers and power stations employees. With a range of industries comes a range of needs and requirements, which our demo fleet delivered.Â
“Another hugely successful event by the team at Apex Radio Systems. We’re able to bring together our customers and suppliers to network and showcase products – whilst enjoying the great course that is Close House. We’re lucky to demonstrate the latest two-way radios and body-worn cameras offerings with such an amazing backdrop.” – Phil Wynne, Business Development Manager. Â
Armed with factor 30, sunglasses and caps, it was a huge success and delight to welcome back customers to our annual event.
Huge congratulations again to our 2025 winners!
Overall individual – Sam Ogles
Group Winners – Sam Ogles, Adam Tear, Jon Gibson, Neil Aitken
