We’re proud to announce Oswald Sibanda as Bluestones One’s Employee of the Month for July

 

At Bluestones One, we take pride in recognising dedication, talent and individuals who consistently go above and beyond. For the month of July, we are pleased to announce that Oswald Sibanda has been selected as our Employee of the Month.

Oswald made an immediate impact during his first assignment with Wickes. He demonstrated a quick grasp of the systems, adapted seamlessly to new processes and approached every task with enthusiasm and determination. His positive attitude and commitment to learning have stood out, making him a valued member of the team from day one.

Nominated by George Mazzoncini, Oswald’s contribution was described as follows:

“Oswald did amazing on his first Wickes. He picked up everything very quickly and in a short time learned how to use their systems. His enthusiasm is contagious and an asset to Bluestones. He communicates well with management and becomes approachable very quickly. Also, his need for more knowledge is second to none. I can only praise his work ethic and friendliness to myself and everyone around him.”

Oswald exemplifies the core values we strive for at Bluestones One. His initiative, strong communication and eagerness to grow professionally reflect the standards we aim to uphold across all our projects.

Congratulations to Oswald on this well-earned recognition. We thank you for your hard work and continued commitment to excellence.

We would also like to give a special mention to Mark Green and Nick Billany for their continued efforts. Your dedication is valued and appreciated.
