THE Team at the De Vere Village Urban Resort Hotel Warrington are celebrating again after Sous Chef Steven Bray won the hotel group’s Hero award for the quarter.
It is the second quarter in a row that the premier hotel in Warrington has picked up the companies top award.
Donn Timmons, General Manager said: “Its great news for the team at the hotel, no other hotel has ever achieved two awards in a year, so to receive two on the bounce is a fabulous achievement”.
Steven will join Paul Jenkinson, last quarter’s winner at the company awards dinner in January which celebrates the companies people and their achievements through the year.
Village Urban Resorts place huge emphasis on their people and candidates for the award are selected against the companies five High Performance Behaviours – V. inspirational, V. Commercial, V. Detailed, V. Resilient and V. Driven and the competition is tough for the top spot.
The Village Urban Resort Warrington has undergone a huge transformation in the last few years with large investment and the addition of a Starbucks but still believes that its just Bricks and Mortar – its all about the people and it’s the hotels engaged staff that consistently deliver great guest experiences.
Commenting on his award Steven said: “I’m really honoured to receive the award, it means a lot to me, I’m proud to work here, but you’ll have to excuse me – I have to dash as we busy planning our V.Big Top Marquee for Christmas!”
