Staff Awards

SSG Services will operate an annual awards process to recognise the outstanding contributions across the company from its staff members.

Each award will require three nominations from the stated members of leadership in the table below. Each nomination must be accompanied by a short synopsis relating to the staff member, the related work they undertake for SSG and reasons for the nomination. Nominations will be shared and therefore, must remain professional and accurate
