Chubb, one of the UK’s pioneering fire safety and security solutions providers, celebrated its outstanding colleagues at its annual Superstar awards ceremony last Friday, 19th May, 2023.
Colleagues from across the UK and Ireland descended on the historic 12th Century Coombe Abbey Hotel in Warwickshire to celebrate their collective and individual hard work, dedication, and achievements during 2022.
Glitz and glamor of the Oscars
This year's theme was the glitz and glamor of the Oscars, and colleagues certainly did their best to impress in ball gowns and tuxedos. The evening began with photos on the red carpet before guests sat down to enjoy a gala dinner.
Kicking off the awards ceremony was a warm welcome from David Dunnagan, Chubb Fire & Security Managing Director for the UK and Ireland. He was then joined on stage by other members of the UK and Ireland senior leadership team to present the Superstar awards to 38 deserving winners from across the business.
