Cocoa-Cola Wins Employer of Choice

COCA-COLA EUROPACIFIC PARTNERS NZ WINS REPUTABLE GOLD MEDAL IN THE EMPLOYER OF CHOICE AWARDS FOR A FOURTH CONSECUTIVE YEAR

Coca-Cola Europacific Partners New Zealand (CCEP NZ) is delighted to announce it is the recipient of a gold medal in the Employees category at the HRD Employer of Choice Awards. This is the fourth consecutive year CCEP NZ has been recognised.

“Keeping our people safe, informed and engaged was the main priority, especially in the case of those in Auckland who were back to working from home and in a strict lockdown. We pivoted our offering, ensuring that we had a hybrid solution to communications and engagement, capturing those working from home as well as those still on-site.” Said Chris Litchfield, Managing Director. 

Areas such as work-life balance, health & wellbeing, career progression, recruitment, training & development, and access to technology & resources are all factors towards the award. CCEP NZ currently employs over 1,000 staff throughout New Zealand and indirectly creates thousands more jobs across the supply chain and with key suppliers. 

"As a company, we ran a series of virtual events including comedy shows, cocktail masterclasses and an eight-week campaign to educate our people around COVID-19 vaccinations. We also enhanced our flexible working policy to adapt to the changing needs of our workforce and released our ‘work from anywhere guide’ in 2021.” Said Clare Parkes, People & Culture Director at CCEP NZ.
