OREANDA-NEWS. Personal Group is pleased to announce that they have been chosen by Lookers Motor Group, as benefits provider across all their dealer networks, in the UK and Ireland.

 Lookers Motor Group was established in 1908 and now operates across 130 different sites, with 6,000 staff, selling over 30 different vehicle marques. Personal Group launched "NICER Rewards" to Lookers' staff on 12th January via their unique face-to-face approach which is what sets Personal Group apart from the other providers.

 The NICER Rewards package includes over 8,000 retail discounts at well-known high street retailers - such as Argos, Asda, Sainsbury's and House of Fraser - and a range of simple insurance products including Voluntary Group Income Protection ("VGIP"), a hospital cash plan, and death benefit. Lookers also have plans going forward to incorporate an Employee Assistance Programme ("EAP"), salary sacrifice home technology and a holiday purchase scheme.

 Sarah Williams, Group HR Manager, said: "We looked at a number of benefit providers but felt that Personal Groups' communication set them apart from the others. Their face-to-face presentation is important as are the benefit books, but we also appreciated the ongoing communication support from Personal Group. Our original benefits offer was basic so in our last employee survey we asked what benefit options staff would like and the retail discounts came out on top. Our next survey is due in February so we are excited to see what the feedback is and we hope that everyone can see that we are listening to their requirements."

Steve Mason, Personal Group Business Development Director, said: "We are very proud to have Lookers Motor Group onboard. Their passionate approach to reward and recognition is superb. We are also looking forward to adding to their programme and hearing the feedback from their employee survey."
