Gabriela Hammond said: “The vast amount of training, opportunities and employee benefits on offer at VEKA allows us to stand out from the crowd. We value our staff more than anything and want to ensure that not only is VEKA a fun place to be, but somewhere that employees can be proud to tell others they work at. With attractive pay packages, a work environment where you feel respected and appreciated, plus a variety of different training opportunities, we really feel that the training and development initiatives here are the best around.”

As to her own nomination in the 'Unsung Hero Award', Gabriela started her career at VEKA as a graduate trainee 16 years ago and took the position of Head of Human Resources in 2012. As a champion of the Dale Carnegie training programme, Gabriela has been a major part in helping 70 members of staff complete the course and was also part of the team that created and launched Veka Spirit, an initiative that encourages staff to be proud of their workplace, share ideas and support their colleagues.
