2023 BEST Employers Awards Conference

2023 BEST Employers Awards Conference

What a superb day at the 2023 BEST Employers Awards Conference yesterday in Newmarket, attended by our MD Chris Park, and our HR Team – Brad Manning and Tiffany Burrell.
 
We are extremely proud to be awarded the Platinum Accreditation for the 2nd time in a row, demonstrating how our people are at the heart of everything we do. 
 
The Platinum accreditation was awarded to only 11 companies in the Eastern Region – so to say we are proud is an understatement.
 
To be recognised for our positive culture is testament to each and every person within Power Testing who contributes to the lives and careers of their colleagues on a daily basis. 
 
So Thank you to everyone at Power Testing for making the company what it is today – an open, supportive, caring and rewarding place to work and delivering expert HV & LV electrical solutions to our customers. 
 
Finally, a big thanks to Pure, Birketts, eras and all the guest speakers for putting on such a brilliant & insightful day.

CBRE Supplier Partner Event 2023

Last week, Power Testing Limited had the privilege of attending the 2023 CBRE Supplier Partner Event at London’s Old Billingsgate.

The event provided Power Testing Limited with the opportunity to expand on their strong connections with both current and prospective suppliers and partners. The day proved to be a resounding success, featuring a special appearance by none other than Kriss Akabusi.

Everyone had an enjoyable day, networking with familiar and fresh faces alike. We extend our gratitude to CBRE for hosting us.

Being a trusted supplier, it’s gratifying to witness the positive outcomes of the combined efforts between both parties, ensuring our clients return home safely and content.

2022 Staff Awards – Power Testing Limited

The day itself was held at Manor of Groves in Sawbridgeworth, where we held the awards ceremony and then proceeded to partake in several Team Building Exercises in a company “Sports Day”.

 

The winners were as follows:

 

Congratulations to all!

World Cup on Sea 2023 – POWER RANGERS!

Well done to all those that took part in the World Cup on Sea charity football tournament on Saturday 20th May 2023 and also to those that came to show their support.

On the pitch, the team showed great bouncebackability after a 6-2 defeat in their opening game, going on to win the next 2 matches 3-1 and 7-0 respectively to make the knockout stages for a third consecutive tournament.

With a few injuries and departures, as well as an hour long wait, a few were suffering the after effects of their group stage efforts and lost the last 16 tie 3-1.

But a good day was had by all – and over £750 raised for HARP, supporting Southend’s homeless community.

Well done to the Power Rangers for another strong showing and lots of memories created.

PFMS Volunteering Day

This year Power Testing were given the opportunity to volunteer with PFMS’s charity partner – Leaders In Community, to help with some garden maintenance. This allowed us to contribute with not only a donation but also show our support via volunteering.

Our Ellie Graves and Steve Gatward attended the LiC Garden on Thursday 15th June 2023 getting their hands dirty by helping with the planting, composting and tidying of the garden.

The cause is an excellent one and any further information on what Leaders In Community do can be found at: https://www.licprojects.org/

Peter Chappell – 15 Years Service

On the 3rd of March, Peter Chappell completed 15 years service with Power Testing.

Many congratulations Pete – where would the team be without our Weekday Call Out Engineer!

Thank you for your continued dedication and support.
