What a brilliant day at the Sainsbury's Property Strategic Partnership Conference at the NEC, followed by an incredible black-tie awards evening celebrating the people and partnerships helping deliver transformation across the Sainsbury’s estate.
It was fantastic to hear Sainsbury’s senior leaders share the next chapter of their strategy and ambitions for the future.
After such a fantastic day, we were immensely proud to see RMS recognised throughout the evening’s celebrations:
• Our very own Paul Hodges received recognition for truly living the “Own It” valued behaviour. A fantastic and very well-deserved moment, reflecting years of hard work and commitment in supporting Sainsbury’s.
• RMS was shortlisted for Strategic Partner of the Year for exceptional service. A recognition that belongs to the incredible people across our business who deliver with commitment, consistency and care every single day.
• We were especially proud to see Sainsbury’s Tonbridge win the inaugural Scheme of the Year Award. This was an incredibly complex investment, and RMS has been heavily involved over the last 12 months, helping redefine what is possible in a live retail environment. Congratulations and thanks to everyone involved in this beast of a project!
CEO Daniel O'Toole said, "I want to give a special thank you to the wider RMS team. Your continued effort, resilience and dedication in delivering day in and day out is what makes moments like this possible. Recognition on a night like this reflects the standards you set, the pride you take in your work, and the trust you continue to build with our partners."
“To me, partnership is about more than projects and performance. It is about trust, consistency and people who show up every day with pride, care and commitment. That is what our RMS team does, day in and day out, and I could not be prouder.”
