Nottingham Venues has been named as a finalist in the Commitment to People Development Category at the 2024 East Midlands Chamber of Commerce Nottingham Business Awards.
Part of the East Midlands Business Awards, covering Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire, the awards celebrate the region’s world-class business community across 14 different categories.
The Nottingham Venues team has been shortlisted in the Commitment to People Development category, which recognises organisations demonstrating a firm commitment to people development and the implementation and promotion of a learning and development culture. It also considers how employee wellbeing is supported and how this culture contributes to the business’s overall success.
Stephanie Moss-Pearce, Director of Marketing at Nottingham Venues, said: “This is a fantastic result for our team. Our people reflect us, as a business, and the value we place on them.
“Over the past three years, our commitment to our people has created a happy, engaged, positive workforce and this has been the biggest factor in driving our business success. Our people create our organisational culture which impacts on the atmosphere we create for our guests. Having satisfied guests brings repeat business and our teams’ excellent service builds our reputation, creating positive reviews, which drive our success.
“We’re thrilled that our initiatives for people development have been recognised. The past year has been our best yet, both financially and in terms of business growth and internal promotions, staff engagement and positive guest feedback, all thanks to our dedicated team.”
Designed for connecting, championing and supporting local businesses, organisations and communities, the annual awards provide an opportunity for sponsors, finalists and other Chamber members to come together and celebrate the amazing work that organisations in Nottinghamshire undertake every day.
The finalists for each county’s awards were selected by a panel of judges made up of sponsors and Chamber senior management. They were revealed at The President’s Summer Celebration event, hosted by Chamber President, Stuart Dawkins.
Mr Dawkins said: “When I look at the people and organisations that have entered or been fortunate enough to become finalists for this year’s awards I’m blown away by the calibre and talent.
“The quality of entries was exceptionally high and I’m sure the judging panels had some tough decisions to make as the shortlist was compiled.”
The winners will be announced at the awards dinner on Friday 1st November at Nottingham Belfry, Nottingham, NG8 6PY
