2017 ended on a high with our Corporate Director, Tony McHardy, winning the title of
'Personality of the Year’ at Energy Live News’ first Utilities Personality Awards.

He has more than 32’ years’ experience spanning across gas, electric and now water utilities; helping businesses of all shapes and sizes save money whilst becoming more efficient with some of the planets most finite resources. 

“It was an honour to be voted the first ever ‘Personality of the Year award’. At Water Plus we pride ourselves on employing individuals that are personal, focused and have real enthusiasm for being the customer champion. Personality and passion flows through everyone that works at Water Plus and I’ll be accepting this award on behalf of all our employees’ based in Stoke-on-Trent, Scotland and across the country.” 

As Corporate Director, Tony has full responsibility for leading and managing  the Account Management, Business Development, Advanced Services, Marketing and Commercial teams to make sure our Corporate customers get the very best day-to-day service. 

Tony instils the importance of understanding the customer needs to help them become more efficient with their resources or water budgets and to generate sustainable cost savings. This customer understanding and drive has won him the respect of his peers as well as the prestigious BESMA Sales Director of the year award. 

It’s clear to anyone that knows Tony, hears him speak at industry events or meets with him socially that he has a great passion for utilities, a passion that can only come from a career spent shaping the future of utilities.

Tony was delighted to receive the Personality of the Year award and shares the belief of Energy Live News that personality is exactly what we need to instil into the world of utilities.
