Award Nominee,

Our January nomination goes to Lucy for recently taking on a new role. She is a real asset to the department and the dealership, we value her support and constant willingness to help. Lucy has gone above and beyond on multiple occasions, here are just a few examples:

She recently collected a customers vehicle (a complaint customer) from Kensington on her day off.

Lucy came in last Monday on her day off with only a few hours’ notice as two other team members were both off sick! We had a problem customer which was a potential “Buy Back” situation. Lucy arranged to collect the car herself on her day off, and also arranged a lift into Kensington from one of our other staff members Husbands, who was working up there on that day. She arrived at his house at 4.30am as he was leaving early to drive into London. Lucy collected the car and brought it in. We managed to rectify the faults and return it and the customer is extremely happy!
