Between the heritage behind 5th generation Director Phil Ainsworth and the expertise of award-winning gemmologist & wife Helen Dimmick, Ainsworth Jewellers is in safe hands.

Phil’s 30 years at the helm of a business formerly responsible for the FA Cup winner’s medals, married with Helen’s experience with the famed Tiffany & Co, create a dedicated pairing in an industry founded on love & care.

On It Runs In The Family this week, we hear from the dazzling couple on their connection to customers, blending the pair’s contrasting approaches, and the succession plan to continue the business’ family values.

This episode covers:

• Balancing Phil’s family business approach with Helen’s more conventional corporate background
• Working together to be greater than the sum of their parts
• Jewellery as an industry of love, and how Ainsworth channel that in their connection to customers
• Ainsworth Jewellers’ staggering 150+ year history
• Writing the future of the business without a blood-relative succession plan
