MANPOWER REWARDS OUTSTANDING ESSEX TEMPORARY STAFF


Jonathan Lester, a temporary worker for Manpower in Chelmsford, has had his hard work and excellent service rewarded: he has been nominated Manpower Essex’ “Temp of the Month”.

Manpower, the UK’s leading recruiter of specialist, flexible and contract workforces, implemented this award scheme to recognise outstanding performance by a temporary member of staff.

Jonathan initially worked for Manpower in a paid conservation role but since the end of March he has worked on a temporary assignment as a receptionist at a public sector organisation in Witham, Essex. He won the award thanks to his outstanding customer service and professional attitude explains Joanne Robertson, Senior Consultant of the branch. “Jonathan epitomises the quality of temporary staff we have working for Manpower in the Essex area. Although he has only been with us since March, he has really impressed us with his enthusiasm and his organisation and communication skills. He is a real asset to Manpower and we are delighted to have had him as part of our team,” concludes Joanne.

Jonathan’s line manager on site, Liz Patterson, commented: “Jonathan has received tremendous feedback from visitors during his time with us. He is well liked by the team, and has rapidly become a valued team member.”

Upon being presented with his award and prize Jonathan said:
“I’m delighted to have been awarded Temp of the Month for Manpower in Essex. Manpower continue to give me interesting assignments, and I like the flexibility of working for them. The benefits are that they provide free training, and I have always found their consultants to be highly professional.”

Jonathan beat candidates from 6 branches throughout Essex to receive this reward.
