Juniper celebrates staff with Awards for Excellence
the Training and Development Chef team, whose work has helped drive measurable improvements in catering standards.
Michael Hales, Chief Executive Officer at Juniper Ventures, said: “Our first Awards for Excellence was a chance to properly celebrate the people who make Juniper what it is. Every day, colleagues across the business go quietly about the work of feeding people well, keeping buildings safe and making sure standards never slip, and it was fantastic to bring 200 of them together to say thank you.
“What struck me most on the night was how many of these stories are about teamwork and care, rather than individual achievement. That is exactly the culture we want to build on.”

Juniper Ventures marked its first ever Awards for Excellence on Friday 17 July, bringing together 200 colleagues, guests and sponsors at The Old Town Hall to recognise the people behind its catering, cleaning and health and safety services across schools and public buildings.
The evening celebrated achievement across 11 categories, from Cleaning Team of the Year and Catering Team of the Year through to Health and Safety Compliance Champion, Unsung Hero, Making a Difference and Colleague of the Year. Each award recognised colleagues who go beyond the everyday demands of their role, whether that’s running a busy kitchen, keeping a building safe and compliant, or simply being the person others rely on.
Among those celebrated was Jackie Patterson, Acting Chef Manager at Calverton School, who took home the Unsung Hero award for the quiet reliability and care she brings to her role every day. Anna Iluta, Chef Manager at Central Park Primary School, was named winner of Outstanding Contribution to Juniper, recognised for the lasting impact of her work across the organisation. The Results Rockstar award went to Rachel Hamilton and Kerry Powell of
Q3 lands Jersey Opera House contract
Q3 has been appointed to deliver cleaning services at Jersey Opera House, one of the Channel Islands’ most recognisable landmark venues.
The contract, which started on 6 July, will see Q3 provide daily housekeeping, pre- and post-event cleaning, and periodic deep cleans across the historic St Helier venue.
Opened in 1900, Jersey Opera House has recently undergone a major refurbishment and has returned to its role at the heart of the island’s cultural life. The venue’s programme ranges from theatre, music and comedy to community performances and special events, creating a varied and sometimes unpredictable operating environment.
Q3 worked closely with the Opera House management team to develop a bespoke cleaning specification that reflects

both the heritage of the building and the flexibility required by a live events venue. Unlike a conventional hospitality or commercial setting, the Opera House is not in constant daily use, and every month’s performance or event programme can place different demands on the cleaning programme.
The service will be delivered by two dedicated housekeepers, supported by an additional post-show team as required. This approach gives the client a consistent core team, while providing the agility to scale cleaning resources around the venue’s performance schedule.
Q3 worked with the Opera House to shape a solution that met the building’s specialist requirements while remaining aligned with the client’s budget.
