Brittany Jeal

Reservations Executive

Award Nominee,

During a routine pre-call, a customer asked Brittany for reassurance around COVID protocols. The customer had been shielding since last year as her husband has lung cancer. They only leave the house to go to hospital appointments and they were concerned about bringing their car to the dealership for its service, although this was the arrangement. To support this at risk customer Brittany then organised a colleague who lived nearby to collect the car, bring it in for its service and drop it back to them. This was something fairly simple but without Brittany sensing the customer’s anxiety and acting we wouldn’t have generated this incredible experience. The customers were really grateful for her kindness and empathy.

Sally Gollop

Service Advisor/H & S

Award Nominee,

The enthusiasm Sally has brought to the H&S Role, and the speed with which she has adapted the system to ‘own it’ has definitely ‘Made it Special’ for the team here in Jaguar Maidstone. I think she has done more in a few weeks than we have managed to achieve in the past year and by her willpower has managed to gain some serious traction in ‘engagement’ from plenty of team members.

Midtronics/Trade Specialist

Award Nominee,

A double celebration for the month of January 2021 for Stuart Murray. He celebrated his 10 year work anniversary and was also nominated unanimously for Making It Special by his colleagues. Unexpected wintry conditions over the week prompted Stuart to assist clearing the dealership site for customers and staff alike. For 2 days solid, Stuart kept the site clear and safe, helped passing motorists who were stuck in the snow on their way. In one day alone Stuart covered a staggering 30,000 steps, never once complaining in the bitterly cold weather. Well done Stuart -very well deserved!
