Pendle’s Customer Services Team, which is managed by Liberata and runs customer services on behalf of the Council, attended a black tie awards dinner at The Palace Hotel in Manchester last Thursday (20th October).

They reached the final in six categories and beat off competition from across the customer service sector scooping the Best Outsourced Contact Centre of the Year and Hero of the Year.
Customer Services Agent Gerson Da Silva won was nominated for Hero of the Year by his manager Vicky McGurk because his commitment to his role means he often goes the extra mile.

He’s regularly spotted helping elderly customers visiting Number One Market Street with their shopping bags.

“Congratulations to everyone in our Customer Services Team, this recognition is well deserved.”
