Last night we attended the annual Inspire Awards, where we were finalists in the Service Excellence category. Today we have an office full of very happy team members, as we won!

The Inspire Awards celebrate the most innovative, exciting and successful businesses in the Hampshire and Thames Valley area.

Along with hundreds of other attendees, we watched, clapped and cheered as local businesses were recognised in categories from ‘Business in the Community’ to ‘Manufacturer of the Year’.

The Service Excellence category was looking for an organisation which continually exceeded customer expectations and could demonstrate a clear correlation between service and business success. The submission process included a written application and a visit from the judges, so to be selected as finalists felt like a huge achievement in itself!

The judging panel commented on our submission: “This year’s winner put service excellence at the forefront of its business proposition and is an outstanding example of how key it is to commercial success.”

Customer care and service has always been a priority for Hireserve, and is one of the things which we think really sets us apart from many others in our industry.

For us, service excellence comes in two forms. There’s the continued day-to-day support and communication which is consistently delivered by our proactive, cheerful and helpful team, and then the ‘extra mile’ initiatives, from our free support clinics to our annual Hireserve User Group.

So, today you find us very happy, a little tired (for those of us who attended the ceremony, it was a bit of a late night), and exceptionally proud.

To sum up, these were the thoughts of Karen and Jeremy, our Founders and Directors, following our award win:

“We are incredibly proud of the Hireserve team. This award recognises the consistent hard-work of our people to deliver outstanding care and support to our customers.

We started Hireserve 18 years ago at the kitchen table and it’s now grown to be an award-winning, international business.

We would like to thank each and every member of our team for believing in our vision of Service Excellence and for making it a reality.”

And, of course, we’d like to thank our fantastic customers for many years of support, recommendations, referrals and very positive professional relationships.
