Recruitment
“East Croydon station has struggled with QuEST audits, continuously striving to better its audit scores throughout its busy day to day working operation. Months ago, Kat was approached to take on this task and ever since being given the opportunity she has striven to better the station environment, ensuring all schedules and audit objectives are met.
Whilst there has still been knock backs, she continually motivates herself to push forward, being proactive and leading her teams as well as supporting the station management team in the achievement of this objective.
Whilst there is some way to go, she has been instrumental in building a positive culture surrounding QuEST and has also helped form the structure of building a dedicated station team for this purpose which is due to launch in just over a weeks time. With these initiatives in place, Kat's tenacity is paying off with increasing awareness of the project but also demonstrating great passion for her station environment and its development as well as meeting DfT targets!
It is the positive and passionate approach which has made me nominate her.“
“Just a line to thank you for an absolutely incredible night. The night itself was really fantastic and I said to my wife, June, just let’s sit back and enjoy it: no pressure as I didn't really think that I would win! Well, as soon as 25 years were mentioned, I took one look at June, while shaking my head in disbelief. Then the marvelous rail and face shaped glittering award and a certificate as well…………………and then the (totally unexpected) cheque!. I was also extremely pleased to see David Maidment recognised. His achievement very appropriately wins the whole night for me and the standing ovation that he received was very well deserved. It was really worth being there just for that. Thanks again to all who were involved in this event (I am now drinking my coffee out of the Rail Seventeen cup at work!).”
