Solvd named as Heathrow’s supplier of the year 2024
We are delighted to be named Supplier of the Year for Heathrow Airport.
At Solvd, our mission is to craft unique solutions that get results and experience tells us, the best way to do this, is to work on the same goal together. ‘We are really nice humans...who care as much as we do to achieve the goal.’ (Steph De Matos, Learning Lead, Heathrow Airport). The goal is simple. Heathrow want to make every journey better for their customers and as a partner we want to help them do it.
So, we were totally chuffed to hear Thomas Woldbye, Group CEO, Heathrow Airport, saying how the work we do is having a positive impact on that ambition...watch Thomas talk more about us below
What we worked on with Heathrow
Solvd Together has been a partner of the Heathrow Learning and Development team since 2022, supporting colleagues across multiple projects as it builds for the future.
From our immersive leadership development programme, Lead the Way, to crafting an innovative programme design to engage colleagues with the new Security CT programme we are making a difference to how people feel about their work.
We also designed an immersive event for their key passenger experience colleagues resetting their mindset and role as they transitioned post pandemic.
By working as one team, we combine our partners’ vast understanding of Heathrow, with our desire to constantly stretch the boundaries of design to collaboratively create innovative learning experiences that directly impact both the colleague and customer experiences across the airport.
Don't take it from us (or even Thomas), here’s what a few of our Heathrow team have to say about us...
“The relationship with Solvd Together is collaborative, informal and honest. They don’t tell you what you want to hear, they tell you what you need to hear and will challenge your thinking if they believe you are going in the wrong direction. They took the time to get to know our organisations’ culture and challenges" Lucy Davies, Head of Learning
“I loved working with the Solvd team, it genuinely felt like they were all part of the Heathrow team...I am so grateful for the agility and dedication the Solvd team showed in the face of multiple complex challenges" Chloe Finlay, Learning Lead for Security and Services
