A COMMITMENT to help deliver excellence in his own business has landed a Radcliffe man a key role of helping other companies improve.

Ian Worthington (43), who works for Warrington-based company management specialist Vertex, has been invited to become a North West Excellence Award Assessor.

Ian, along with two colleagues, had impressed bosses with their knowledge and expertise in business change management.

North West Excellence runs a regional awards scheme aimed at recognising businesses which are committed to excellence and aspire to become best in class.

Each year, teams of high calibre assessors which are chosen from businesses across the region help evaluate submissions for the North West Excellence Awards.

Applications for the award are received from a wide range of organisations throughout the region and award assessors need to possess a high level of expertise and experience in business improvements along with a reputation for integrity.
