Buzzworks is hailed as top place to work
To mark its recent top 40 ranking in a national poll of The Best Companies to Work for, Buzzworks Holdings held a celebration for staff and customers across all of its venues while donating £ 2,500 to charity.
On Friday, March 3, Buzzworks took part in National Best Companies Day where over £ 10,000 worth of gift cards were presented to staff, and any tips given from customers on the day were matched by the company and donated to its charity Giving Back fund.
True to its word, Buzzworks put £ 2,500 into the Giving Back fund which is split between Ayrshire Hospice, Cancer Research UK and Glasgow Children’s Hospital as beneficiaries for the 2016/ 17 pot.
Kenny Blair, Buzzworks Managing Director, said: “We are extremely proud of this momentous achievement and grateful to our talented team for showing their support for Buzzworks Holdings once again.
” To mark our new top 40 position, it was important for us to celebrate with our staff and our customers - this is an award for everyone.”
The Ayrshire based hospitality group boasts a portfolio of nine venues including Scotts in Troon, Elliotts in Prestwick, Lido in Troon and The Mill House in Stewarton.
It also recently announced its first venture outside of Ayrshire in the shape of The Coach House, due to open this summer in Bridge of Weir.
Kenny added: Kenny added: “Our people are everything and we are proud of our family- like environment, with staff of all ages working together in close- knit teams to provide world class hospitality to our customers.
“Buzzworks Holdings place real emphasis on development and progression. Our philosophy is simple, if we look after our staff then they will look after our customers.
“We encourage all employees to reach their potential through our training and development programme.
“We have seen great success with more than 100 promotions in the last 12 months alone.”
Featuring in the prestigious list for the second year running, Buzzworks Holdings has leapt a massive 24 places to number 40, testament to the support and development it provides to its 444 strong workforce.
Earlier this month Buzzworks hosted its own celebration titled National Best Companies Day to mark its latest achievement and reward staff for their efforts and dedication.
More than £ 10,000 worth of gift cards were presented to staff and any tips given from customers on the celebration day were matched by the company and donated to its Giving Back fund, which has raised well over £ 50,000 in the last two years
