Thomsons Online Benefits Win Motability's Business Partner Award
Thomsons Online Benefits has scooped the “Business Partner” award at the fifth annual Supplier Awards, presented by Motability Operations, the company which operates the Motability car, powered wheelchair and scooter scheme.
Recognising the people and businesses who deliver outstanding choice, excellence and customer satisfaction to over half a million Motability customers, the Supplier Awards cover all areas of the Motability Operations business.
Thomsons have worked with Motability since 2004 helping them develop their employee reward programme “myflex” into a sector leading package. Motability Operations went on to achieve “Best Company to Work for” status in 2007.
Motability Operations’ HR team nominated Thomsons for the award following many years of successful partnership. Over 100 suppliers were considered including car manufacturers and insurers.
The judges commented: “Providing Motability Operations with benefits software and consultancy that allows a flexible approach, Thomsons Online Benefits has delivered first-class consultancy support to the in-house Motability Operations HR function for several successful years. Ongoing service improvements make Thomsons Online Benefits a worthy award winner in the Business Partner Category.”
Michael Whitfield CEO of Thomsons comments: “We have been lucky enough to win many awards for our work, but for me this is one of the most important that we have ever received in our 10 year history. Not only is it the first one we have ever been awarded direct by a client, but it is also from a client who has a reputation for expecting the highest standards of service at all times. We look forward to continuing to work with Motability Operations as collaborative partners to continue raising the bar on our delivery in the future.”
Anne Downey, HR Director at Motability adds: “In the six years that we have worked with Thomsons we have always been impressed by their innovation, and passion for delivering excellence. This award is testament to the hard work put in by both the HR team and Thomsons to deliver a market leading flexible benefits package”.
