Patrick is a loyal, hardworking and enthusiastic member of our Top Oil team in the western region, who has consistently delivered despite his recent health challenges, and is a worthy winner of this award.
Similarly, the team in the Kilkenny depot have shown hard work and dedication over the past year, and the high levels of customer service they deliver to our customers in Kilkenny and surrounding areas is a testament to them. At Top Oil, recognising our outstanding employees is very important to us, as they act as ambassadors for our company when dealing with our customers every day, in retail sites and when delivering to our customers.”
