Paul Jenner
Paul Jenner is a founding director of High Peak Radio.
As Sales Director, he has the daunting task of making sure we sell enough advertising to keep operating profitably, a feat he's managed from Day One.
The day-to-day manager of the station, he also somehow finds time to present the Saturday morning Weekend Wake Up.
He is related by marriage to Steve.
They share the same parents.
One of the station's biggest hits is his "Shopper's Sweep" competition, where callers to the station try to work out the price of a bag of shopping.
It's always fun watching Paul solemnly declaring he's got fat balls for birds to give away.
He has worked on a number of stations throughout the Midlands and the North West since 1993 and was, along with Steve, the brains behind the trial radio services in the High Peak which started in 1999 and the making of High Peak Radio Ltd.
Previously a "live" disc jockey by trade, he is one of very few disco DJs to successfully make the transition from live gig to studio and one of very, very few to actually manage a radio station.
Despite an enthusiasm for fine food and drink, Paul refuses to give in, and his repeated health kicks, running regimes, half-day diets and occasional ill-advised football comebacks are the stuff of legend.
He can often be seen at the Silverlands on a Saturday afternoon, shouting a variety of non-PC pieces of advice to visiting referees.

The female foil to Paul's more rugged charms (and that, Paul, will cost you a fiver), she seems trapped in an extended blonde moment which means her quotes are legendary.
Quite possibly the nicest human being you are ever likely to meet, she will believe absolutely anything you tell her and never thinks or speaks ill of anyone.
Which means loads of fun and no revenge!
Fiercely proud of her native Glossop, despite certain cat person type tendencies, she spends a lot of her time worrying about dogs, and a "lost dog" call to the station when she's in the office can lead to her insisting on all programmes being cancelled until the pooch in question is found.
