Helping to create new levels of employee engagement at the world's largest dedicated Ford dealer group.

TrustFord has an enviable reputation as an Employer of Choice; with a host of accolades from HR and industry followers.

For four years now they have been recognised as one of the Sunday Times' Best Big Companies to Work For.

For over a decade we have been playing a key part in TrustFord's internal communications, delivering mission-critical video and presentation content as well as spectacular events that motivate teams and build strong relationships.

“But we haven’t achieved this level of success alone, and playing a consistently important role in our success has been SGA."

"They have proved to us time and again that they have the dedication and capability to deliver major employee communications projects and have rightly earned their place as an invaluable extension of our TrustFord Family.”

Sharon Ashcroft, HR Director

Recruitment

As part of assessing candidates SGA created a suite of films that paint a picture of what they can expect from a career with TrustFord.

Working closely with their own in-house stars meant we could make films which were true to life, credible and on point.

Each film is different but complementary, and paints a picture of the role in a way that is appealing, informal yet informative.

“Showing candidates a glimpse of their future roles has become so much easier with our new Day in the Life films...and they can get to know the attributes and potential we're looking for."

".....SGA took the time to really understand our vision and crafted it into an engaging reality which captures the essence of what it’s like to be part of the TrustFord Family.”

Vicky Thornton Human Resources Support Manager

Induction

Every new member of TrustFord is made to feel valued at the Induction Academy.

This is a fortnightly, three-day full immersion residential onboarding experience where all new colleagues receive comprehensive education on the business and its culture.

Having this time set aside from the start means that every new colleague begins with a deep understanding of what TrustFord is all about.

TrustFord briefed SGA to create an experiential Induction event. The result was a carefully co-ordinated creative flow of presentations, videos, games, interactive tech and quizzes – all within a context of revolutionising the HR process.

In this way every new colleague really gets the picture about the business they’ve joined.

“Thanks for all your support in bringing our vision to life!”

Gary Norton Learning & Development Manager

Behaviours

TrustFord’s Purpose, Principles and Ambition is an overarching ethos centred on customer and colleague satisfaction that guides the whole organisation.

But without a clear visual demonstration of what that means the proposition was not going to be easy for employees to grasp what was required of them.

“We gave SGA the challenge of interpreting both positive and negative behaviours in a short film which would bring to life exactly what our employees need to do – in a way which would hit home at every level of the organisation.”
“Our internal communication of this PPA initiative has been transformed by this great film which cleverly makes an impact every time it is shown, because of the attention to detail and the quality which SGA was able to provide.”Sharon Ashcroft, Group HR Director

Motivation

Bringing Managers and colleagues up to date with company initiatives and progress in social surroundings is an annual date in the company calendar.

SGA has raised the bar in terms of delegate experience and impact to provide a day of engaging content that helps get the message across to the 600+ attending.

Use of creative videos, voting apps, Q&A and live feeds along with scripted presentations keeps the sessions interesting – and the opportunity to showcase product never goes amiss.

Delegate feedback

"My first conference and I found it a fantastic insight into the business."

Recognition

TrustFord recognises the brilliant achievements and hard work of colleagues across the business with an industry-leading awards evening.

Building on the momentum SGA have created over nine years of involvement, the Awards for Excellence is a highlight of the year for employees.

In developing relationships with TrustFord's key business partners, SGA have propelled their Awards evening for 300+ into a true night to remember.
