Europe

The 2009 Shared Services Excellence Awards were presented at Shared Services Week on May 12th 2009 at the Novotel Budapest Congress Center, Hungary.

Once again the great and the good of Shared Services gathered for the annual gala dinner and awards ceremony - and were soon entertained by BBC radio and television presenter, John Humphrys. He gave the audience the opportunity to put him in the hot seat as he invited questions from the floor about his career and he reminisced about the moments that have stood out for him on his BBC radio 4 programme, Today.

With the help of a fine backing band, John introduced the awards ceremony which saw a succession of winners and honorary mentions receive the acclaim of their Shared Services peers - and, of course, the very fetching Shared Services Excellence Awards themselves. By the end of the evening the audience had greeted an array of truly worthy winners, and as the band struck up once more it was the Statoil Hydro team who took the stage for the ultimate accolade: the award for Shared Services Organisation of the year.

The Shared Services & Outsourcing Network would like to offer sincere congratulations to all the winners for 2009 and, indeed, extend this to everyone who entered, as the standards of entry this year were once again of a very high level. Roll on 2010!

Testimonials

"This is the first time that Intercomp Global Services embarked on this type of collaboration with SSON. But our team has been impressed with the professionalism in the way this service was delivered and all our expectations were exceeded. The webinar we delivered in association with SSON was slick and very well organized delivering more leads than we expected and we didn’t even have to leave the office! Intercomp Global Services is very much looking forward to become a long term partner with SSON"
