Russell Steer
Kivells Auctioneers
From lining up farm toys and selling them to imaginary buyers, to landing his dream job, then being appointed a Director of Kivells Auctioneers, being nominated for Auctioneer of the Year is a great honour for Russell Steer. He is their lead sheep auctioneer, who works hard to lift the profile of sheep sales and increase throughput.
The Market Cafe
