Following the award presentation we spoke to Karen and Jean who were thrilled to be the recipients of this years Dee Richards ‘Team’ Pride Award:
“We couldn’t be more pleased and proud to have achieved this fantastic recognition and are so happy for the team who are also over the moon.
Even though we are such a large team of 20+ Cleaning Staff, we are very close knit and count ourselves as a real we clean / MIRA family.
We have worked immensely hard for this award and couldn’t be prouder. A lot of the team have worked with us for a long period of time so it is great to receive this recognition from the senior Management Team at we clean.
We would also like to thank everyone involved at MIRA Technology Park for their continued support and for trusting us to carry out essential daily and periodic high-quality cleaning.”
In agreement is David Harker, Director:
“As an organisation we are immensely proud of the longstanding achievements of our Management and Cleaning based at MIRA Technology Park. We have successfully managed this complex cleaning operation covering 70+ individual buildings for approaching 10 years.
We were delighted that our clients Mark Rogers and Mark Colton invested their time to applaud and celebrate the teams fantastic achievement.
