Staff members recognised for outstanding contribution within the University.
Date: 20 December 2017
London Met’s Staff Annual awards took place this week, celebrating colleagues' outstanding achievements throughout the year.
Taking place in Holloway's Great Hall, nominators and nominees, along with the Wider Management Group, gathered to recognise and celebrate excellence within the University.
Hosted by the Vice-Chancellor, 16 individuals and three teams received awards for their hard work.
Athena Barrett, Internal Communications Officer at our Holloway Campus was among the prize winners after being nominated by four members of staff for her excellent work throughout the University. Her passion for London Met and the relationships she has developed across the University are just some of the reasons why she won an award.
She said: “It felt fantastic when I was walking up to receive my certificate from the Vice-Chancellor. I was among all my friends and colleagues and couldn’t have asked for a better reception.”
Another winner, Tammee Greeves, Executive Group Administrator for Academic Business Administration was praised for her positive, helpful and supportive attitude. Her ability to communicate with both staff and students makes her a great diplomat and a wonderful ambassador.
Tammee said: “I’m very shocked and touched that people took the time to nominate me, it was a very pleasant surprise. London Met employs great people, all of whom deserve to be recognised for their hard work and commitment to making this University a great place. Congratulations to all of the other well deserved nominees.”
