History

History

Property Consortium UK, have enjoyed healthy growth from their inception. Originally the business was conceived and run from the living room of one of the Directors’ homes, but today we are extremely proud to say that over a relatively small business career (15 Years) the Group companies have grown into a multimillion, medium size enterprise., with a collective projected turnover for this financial year of over £12 million and employing just under 100 staff.

It continues to be a privately owned company with strong robust financial footings, no plans to sell-out to its competitors, or have need to seek financial assistance from investors or indeed float on the London Stock Exchange. Thus we will remain a close knit operation that is personally run by all the directors and senior management. The directors and senior staff are very much hands on and can often be found on the front line of the business to continually learn how to drive it forward and help it achieve its next target. The expansion and success of the Group companies have been through shrewd re-investment of the companies’ profits, and it is planned anticipated that we will continue this way of expansion for the foreseeable future.

We recognise that in an ever competitive and demanding moving market place, we cannot afford to stay still and need to ensure we become multi-dimensional, without detracting from our core service. This is why we have been careful and considered in adding other services that can be easily "bolted on" to existing services and still utilise our management expertise and core suppliers. We will be the first to enter the market with a surveyor led restoration propososition.

Somerset Business Awards Service Excellence 2011

Somerset Business Awards 2010

Property Consortium Group has achieved success for the second year running at the Somerset Business Awards, after its pioneering work in customer service within the insurance sector saw the company secure the Service Excellence title.

This accolade is the third presented by Somerset Business Awards to the Taunton-based company, which last year won Business of the Year as well as the Albert Goodman Entrepreneur of the Year title, presented to Property Consortium Group's CEO, Jeremy Hyams.

The Service Excellence award recognizes how, across all activities at Property Consortium Group, the company's approach to customer service steps well beyond the standard to keep both policyholders and insurance clients happy.

Judges of the Service Excellence award were looking for an approach over and above normal industry expectations and clear strategies for maintaining such a level of service.

They recognised Property Consortium Group's new initiatives, including their client specific, Bespoke Customer Lifestyle Satisfaction programme, introduced this year, which is at the cutting-edge of customer excellence – and how the approach and attitude of staff were key to the success of customer service overall.

Sandra Wilson – Ylem Managing Director, Chair of the Somerset Chamber and Judge of the Service Excellence Award, said: "Property Consortium Group are working with customers who have had extremely distressing experiences and need not only an excellent service but support and completion as soon as possible.

"Property Consortium Group have systems and processes in place to offer all of this plus much more and have a wealth of glowing feedback from very happy customers confirming that the entire team offer a service of the very highest level."

Jeremy Hyams, CEO of Property Consortium Group, said: "We are delighted the work we do for our insurer clients and their policyholders has been recognised at the Somerset Business Awards.

"Our objective is to become the market-leading property repair service for the insurance industry and key to achieving this is our commitment to exceptional customer service."

Jeremy added: "The team at Property Consortium Group take pride in delivering exceptional customer service.

"Since our employment turnover rate is very low, many of our staff have been through various surge events, such as storms. They go the 'extra mile' when clients and their policyholders need them the most.

"This approach allowed us to easily handle increased volumes caused by the cold temperatures last winter – and this ultimately saw our clients transfer more business to us, meaning the great work of the team and their commitment to exceptional service is at the route of the Group's continued growth and expansion."
