A GREENOCK call centre employee is in the driving seat at work — after winning a brand new £11,000 car in a company competition.

Lucky Paul Campbell, 25, is the proud owner of a new Peugeot 208 thanks to a bumper raffle held by his employers Webhelp UK, which has a base at Holt Court in Greenock.

The customer service firm held a two-month ‘Christmas Bonanza’ for staff in the run-up to 25 December – with Greenock man Paul drawn at random as the main prize winner from thousands of workers.

Stunned Paul, who has worked with the firm for over three years, said: “This was just an amazing Christmas present. I’m still shell-shocked.

“It’s going to help our family life so much.

“The whole Greenock team were talking for weeks about who might win the car.

“I couldn’t believe my luck when I heard my name.

“The win made sure it was a really great Christmas.

“Thanks to everyone at Webhelp UK.” The company raffled an array of prizes across its sites during the festive season and bosses say it is important to reward the dedication of their hard-working staff.

But it was the brand new car which was top of the wish-list, with Greenock man Paul in pole position for the win.

Anton Manley, director of strategic accounts at Webhelp UK, handed over the keys on Christmas Eve and says Paul was a worthy winner.

He said: “Paul is such a deserved winner. He is dedicated to his role and is a credit to Webhelp UK.

“It’s fantastic to be able to recognise him in this way.” During the giveaway, 15 team members throughout the UK won gift vouchers, iPad Minis and plasma TVs. Other prizes included £1,000 worth of holiday vouchers, a 3D TV and extra days annual leave.

James McEleny, who is also based at the Greenock call centre, was one of six staff who won £150 of gift vouchers in recognition of their hard work over the festive season.
