Dorset school bus service manager Chris Wisbey is celebrating this week - after being named our Employee of the Year.
Chris, described as ‘understated but totally epitomising Damory’, was presented with his award by our managing director, Andrew Wickham.
“Chris joined Damory as a trainee, and is based in Dorchester - our most westerly depot. From here, he manages Damory’s Dorchester schools bus fleet - and he is very good at it,” said Andrew.
“He manages the ‘run out’ from this location every day - signing on every coach before his team arrives. He makes sure his colleagues have everything they need - even bringing in hot flasks during the winter.
“Keeping his depot in tip-top shape is vitally important, and Chris oversees everything - from painting yellow parking lines and trimming trees to litter picking, deep coach cleaning and shed fixing.
“Depots like Dorchester simply would not run without managers like Chris. He is totally dedicated and epitomises the Damory ‘can do’ attitude. I’d like to congratulate him and wish him a successful year ahead.”
In recognition of his efforts, Chris received £500 worth of vouchers and a trophy.
