Crest Plus Umbrella Shortlisted for National Award

We are delighted to have been shortlisted for the Contracting Awards in the Umbrella Company category.

This is the first time we have entered the awards and it follows our recent Investors in People re-accreditation.

Our entry emphasised our recent unprecedented growth, particularly in the construction sector.  We are particularly proud of our track record in the accurate and timely processing of thousands of timesheets.  The market we serve is unusually demanding.  Workers generally submit weekly timesheets as opposed to monthly timesheets.  This produces a huge volume of activity.  To succeed in this sector, we have had to build systems and processes which can withstand severe stress.  And we’ve had to create a culture whereby each member of staff plays their part, works as a team and is empowered to do the right thing on their own initiative – week-in, week-out.

In addition, our payments team is the most experienced in the industry, with 5 of the team in that department serving our business for 18+ years each. Despite many of the legislative changes that have occurred, the consistency of the payments team has been invaluable.

We are very much looking forward to the presentation evening in June!
