We are exceptionally proud to see our Service Manager, Gabrielle Hogg, being awarded Highly Commended in the 2023 BPCA Leadership Award. Congratulations to John Knight on winning this award.
The BPCA Leadership award recognises business owners, managers and supervisors that support amazing teams and fantastic pest management companies. As a industry and as a professional pest control company we would be nowhere without the great leaders within our organisations that inspire and encourage their teams forward every day.
Gabrielle Hogg joined Pest Solutions in November 2019 as a trainee after working as a manager in the customer service industry. Gabrielle’s hard work, dedication, professionalism, leadership skills and passion for customer service excellence saw her beat experienced industry candidates in being appointed Service Manager at Pest Solutions in January 2021.
She was recognised for her professionalism as the winner of the 2021 National Pest Awards “Young Pest Controller of the Year”.
As a champion of customer service excellence, Gabrielle led the way as a technician in gaining customer reviews. She has encouraged the team to have the same focus gaining over 911 5-star reviews on Google & Checkatrade in the last 2 years under her leadership.
As the first female service technician hired here at Pest Solutions she has helped to build a team that is 40-45% female (4.5% industry average) as the team grew from 7 to 46 people as the business quadrupled in size over the last 3 years.
Gabrielle’s outstanding leadership is even more exceptional as in January 2022 she became a first time mum of son Rory. Balancing life as a busy mum and being upcoming industry leader is not easy. Gabrielle will be taking some time out of the industry to focus on being a full time mum and support to her partner who works a busy role as a farmer. We are excited to see what Gabrielle will achieve in the future should it be here at Pest Solutions, in the wider pest control industry or the farming industry. Whatever she does next she will excel at we are certain.
At Pest Solutions we work closely with the team at Beaver Pest Control to service national contracts and know that Julia Pitman is an equally worthy finalist for this award for the great work she does at Beaver and in her BPCA duties.
All finalists in this category should be incredibly proud of their achievement.
Congratulations to John Knight (Winner) & Gabrielle Hogg (Highly Commended) in the 2023 BPCA Leadership Award:
We were proud to win the BPCA Commitment To Training Award in 2021 and were delighted to be nominated as finalists in 2022 and again this year in the 2023. Being nominated as finalists in this category every year for the last 3 years means alot to us. Our core strength is our people and supporting them to be their best is a passion of ours here at Pest Solutions.
Of all of the things, we would hope to be recognised for as a business, the greatest is in how we invest in our people. We are only as good as each and every Pest Solutions team member that is out on the front line looking after our customers and protecting public health every day.
Being recognised again for this award gives us great confidence that we are continuing to invest in the skills and training of our team. We strongly believe that driving professionalism in the industry by having the best-trained team will ensure that we look after our customers better. The better our people can be the more our business will thrive.
We are glad to see that there are other companies in the industry that share our commitment to training and commend the example set by the other finalists. We are more than happy to be competing with the other finalists over-investment in professionalism rather than who can be the cheapest.
Congratulations to John O’Conner on winning this award.
