Employee of the Season – Summer 2016

Suzanne Whitton • October 10, 2016

Nominations for ‘Employee of the Season’ Summer 2016, trickled in over a two week period. When counting up the votes, it was encouraging to see a good split across all departments – Accounts, Operations, Sales and the office team.

The winner has been a Rapid employee since 2010 and is clearly very well thought of by her colleagues. Monique Astruc works as part of our sales team and keeps us all highly entertained with her witty repartee on the telephone. Monique is responsible for our first school signing, a sector which we now have a strong foothold in.

This is what her colleagues had to say about her…

“I’m nominating Monique because she brings top banter every day!”

“Monique is always welcoming to everybody that comes in to the office and she tries so very hard to be helpful on the phone. All her sales calls are unique and she manages to sound chirpy as well as positive most of the time. A very well thought of colleague by all I think.”

“Monique brings a lot to the office by way of her welcoming attitude and her humour.  The office is never as happy a place when she is absent.”

“Monique is such a character and brings so much fun to the office.  It is obvious when she is off, the atmosphere is just not the same without her.”

 

Congratulations Monique! It is clear that you are hugely valued by your colleagues and we are privileged to have you as part of the Rapid team.
