It's the personal touch that helps Ogilvie Fleet motor onwards in a competitive business sector. The company acknowledges that IT is the key to the way it provides service and efficiency as an expert in contract hire, leasing and vehicle management. But the people it employs are vital too.
It says clients are reassured that an Ogilvie colleague is just a phone call away. Established in 1979 and based in Stirling, the business has grown from a handful of team members and a few small customers to an annual turnover in excess of £100m and the employment of about 100 people throughout the UK.
Its reputation is built on being able to deliver bespoke solutions and award-winning customer service, linked with competitive pricing and establishing a genuine partnership with its clients. The IT solutions allow 24/7 service, backed up by that helpful member of staff on the other end of the line.
Ogilvie's culture and its commitment to total customer service would be impossible without the hard work and dedication of the workforce. Sustainability, equality and community investment innovations are central to the company, which raises thousands of pounds for charities each year.
It also invests time and emotion in its local communities, and works closely with clients and partners to minimise the environmental impact of the sector they work in. Ogilvie recently won the best business lease prize at the 2021 Business Motoring Awards.
My manager cares about me as an individual
An extensive management development programme across the company includes sessions on handling issues at an early stage; improving performance; managing time, priorities and tasks; and improving team will and morale. It has been delivered online and received excellent feedback from participants.
I believe I can make a valuable contribution to the success of this organisation
The impact of the pandemic on Ogilvie was mostly limited to the initial months of lockdown last year. It took a flexible approach on whether people went back to Covid-secure offices or continued to work from home. Managers held one-to-one meetings with staff when they returned.
I am happy with the balance between my work and home life
The company considers mental health a priority and has supported a training programme across the company over the past two years. Mental health first-aiders were appointed and an online service gives employees and their families support and advice. During the pandemic there was additional investment.
Companies where at least 40% of the staff have worked there for more than five years.
Companies offering a final salary scheme to all employees, or one in which the employer's contribution is at least 5%.
