Peter Mark honours Mayo employee for long-standing service

PETER Mark, Ireland’s leading hairdressing group, has honoured 75 of its employees for their valued contribution and long-standing service to the company.

The Peter Mark Long Service Awards took place at The Westin Hotel, Dublin, and recognised employees who have worked at salons for 10 years plus.

One of those recognised was Tracy Kearney from the Castlebar salon who was honoured for 10 years of service.

Collectively the 75 people honoured have over 1,400 years of experience in the hairdressing industry, ranging from stylists to support staff. That equates to over 2.8 million hours of blow-dying, cutting and colouring hair!

Speaking at the awards, Peter O’Rourke, CEO of Peter Mark, said: “As a company built on people, today is an important day. Today we recognise those who have committed between a decade and 40 years of service to Peter Mark. This is a huge achievement and one that we are delighted to be able to celebrate with our talented team.

“As a company at the forefront of hairdressing in Ireland for the last 58 years, we know how important it is to attract and retain the best people. We place huge emphasis on nurturing the talent that comes through Peter Mark from the moment they walk in the door. We provide a lifelong career in the industry and we offer continuous professional development which is delivered through our world class training programme.

“I want to congratulate all our Long Service Award recipients and thank them for their commitment to our company. The future is bright as we continue to cultivate this precious talent for years to come."
