  • (1888PressRelease) September 25, 2010 - Powerchex, the leading pre-employment screening firm for financial services, has won recognition at the prestigious Docklands Business Awards.

    Powerchex was recognised in the 'Business of the Year' category for the 2nd year running at a glittering awards ceremony in London Wednesday evening. The Judging Panel paid tribute to Powerchex, recognising the outstanding customer service record of an SME in a highly competitive industry sector.

    Alexandra Kelly, who was also shortlisted in the 'Business Person of the Year' category, said she was flattered and delighted that all the hard work behind Powerchex had been recognised by the Judging Panel.

    "It is an incredible achievement for us to be honoured two years running, especially given the extraordinary standard of competition at this year's awards. It is a tribute to the dedication and professionalism of the entire Powerchex team!"

    This is not the first time that Powerchex has won praise from a professional judging panel; in recent years Powerchex has been commended for its pioneering staff training and development programme, which lowered costs by reducing staff turnover and increasing the output per person.

    "It is extremely important to invest in your workforce, even in times of economic difficulty," continues Kelly. "While it can be easy to concentrate only on the front-line of your business, keeping staff motivated and your cost-per-unit as low as possible maximises your chances of business success."

    In fact, Powerchex is growing so quickly that it has to take on additional office space in Wapping, and is looking to hire an additional 90 staff just to keep up with demand.

    "We're looking for dedicated, hard-working people, with a great attitude, who want to learn all about how a real business works," says Operations Manager Andrew McIntosh. "If you live in the Central or East London area and you're looking for an opportunity to gain office-based experience then please get in touch!"
