Kent Corporate Relocation has taken top honours in the Australian Business Awards 2012 in the category of Service Excellence.

The awards program, established in 2005, engages with leading corporate, government and non-profit organisations across a large number of industry segments. 

The Service Excellence Award was granted to Kent for its promotion and development of organisational service excellence in its Culture, Leadership and Business Strategies, Customer Relationship Management, HR Management and Industry Contributions/Achievements. It recognises the investment Kent has made in innovation, technology, people, and HR/business policy development which are critical to the delivery of service excellence to the end users.

Congratulating Kent, Ms Tara Johnston, Program Director, The Australian Business Awards said: “These types of accolades don’t come easily – they are underpinned by vision and leadership, both of which require a clear dedication to research and development. Despite a challenging business environment locally and abroad, this year’s participants in The Australian Business Awards remain steadfast in their commitment to innovation and excellence.”

“We’re proud to promote the models of business and product excellence in addition to highlighting contributions to the community and sustainability initiatives with these leading organisations and to publicly honour their achievements,” she added. “There was unparalleled breadth and depth in this year’s entries, highlighting the economic stability of Australia and stamping it as the ‘clever country’ for progressive projects, investment, enterprise ventures and workplace practices. Across the private, public and not-for-profit sectors, the 2012 winners of The Australian Business Awards are innovative, agile and truly ‘best in class’.”
