Gordon Brown Presents Ventura With Award

Ventura, the outsourcing company, is delighted to announce it is today being presented with an award by Prime Minister, Gordon Brown at Downing Street. The prestigious award recognises the company as a great employer for working mums in the Jobs 4 Mums Awards 2009.

Top Ranking Performers Conference 2009 The Awards, run by a joint approach between jobs4mothers.com and Take a Break magazine, were judged, amongst others by Harriet Harman, Minister for Women.

HR Director at Ventura, Christine Petyt, said; "We’re delighted to be receiving the award. We are keen supporters of working mums and aim to offer the initiatives and flexibility to enable them to balance a working life and being a mum. Twenty-five percent of Ventura’s employees work in part-time or job share roles so it’s important we provide the necessary benefits and opportunities to meet their needs. "

Ventura was recognised as Highly Commended because of its range of flexible working options that encourage mums to come to work including; sliding shifts to accommodate commitments, time off for dependants and a variety of part-time shifts. It also fully supports and promotes ‘Kidsunlimited Childcare Vouchers’, which could save an average working mum £1195 in childcare costs and is currently piloting a term time working scheme, which allows individuals to request time off over the school holiday period.

The award entry focused on the story of Joanna Eden, who, when joining Ventura as a Customer Service Advisor eight years ago, felt there would be little opportunity for career progression as a part-time, working mum. Yet, through her performance and commitment, coupled with Ventura’s flexibility and support, after only 18 months she successfully achieved promotion to Team Leader and has continued in this role at Ventura for six years.

About Ventura:

Ventura aims to source and supply cost effective solutions for on-site and wide area communication requirements. Many years of experience have been applied to the search and selection process. Factors such as long term reliability, field service, are just 2 to mention in this ’’’’Best Value’’’’ Evaluation.
