KCE Manager wins Contact Centre Manager of the Year

KCE’s Retail Business Manager, Helen Peacock, has been awarded the 2013 Contact Centre Manager of the Year Award (under 50 seats) by the Contact Centre Institute of New Zealand (CCiNZ).

The award was announced to a crowd of 750 of the country’s top call centre administrators and staff at the Institute’s annual award dinner at Sky City Convention Centre on 20 September.

CCiNZ Chair and award judge, Nadene Gavigan, said the awards judges thought Helen was very deserving of the award.
“The award nomination and judging process is extremely demanding as the judging panel accesses many different aspects of each nominee’s role and their impact on the overall business.  Throughout the judging process, Helen and her team impressed us at every turn. 

“We chose her as the winner above all finalist because she demonstrated a strategic vision, plus it was evident she and her staff touch all parts of the KCE business – they are not an isolated team.  Additionally, Helen clearly demonstrated a track record of business improvement and cost savings.  And above all, her passion for KCE customers and the desire to provide them with excellent service outshone the other finalists,” explained Nadene.

From the company’s base in Taumarunui, Helen manages a retail team of 20, which includes ten customer service representatives, six meter readers, three commercial business account managers and an administrator.
