2014 Contractor of the Year Emma-Kate with Clicks Contractor Care Manager, Rachel Rose (and her amazing prize package!)

The winner of Clicks’ 2014 Contractor of the Year was announced on Friday. Rachel Rose, Clicks’ Contractor Care Manager, was thrilled to present the prize to this year’s winner, Emma-Kate from Melbourne. Emma-Kate won a fantastic digital sound system and music subscription package valued at over $1400. A Clicks contractor for over two years now, Emma-Kate has consistently received glowing reports from her managers.

Her manager Michael wrote this winning nomination:

“Emma-Kate is not a contractor, she is a member of our family. The combination of her personality, capabilty and attitude to work and life makes her such a dearly loved member of our team, that it has made us all wish projects didn’t have to end. Luckily, we have continuity in our delivery that enables us to retain ‘EK’, and she can continue to assist us in achieving our project objectives whilst having fun on the way. She has even run a small creche for two of us when the kids had to come into work on holidays! Thanks EK! And thank you CLICKS!!”

We took the opportunity to ask Emma-Kate a few questions when we met up with her.

How do you plan on using your new sound system?

Loudly! Although my project team has requested a couple of ‘conditions’. One recommending it become a temporary fixture in the office until project closure, but after that (if I can get it back) it’ll be a new addition to my lounge.

What made you decide to become an IT contractor?

Previously working in a learning and development environment, IT presented a new and completely different opportunity and technical challenge. Clicks had the right role at the right time, and I was lucky enough to get it!

What do you think it takes to be a standout IT contractor?

The right attitude, a willingness to learn everything you possibly can – whether it be from your colleagues or the project itself, and the ability to put yourself out there and be prepared to work hard.

And lastly, tell us what you enjoy most about your current engagement at DoJ?

The team, the fast paced environment, the best coffee shop across the road and the career development opportunities that I’ve been given so far.

We received so many fantastic nominations this year. The team at Clicks would like to send a huge thank you to all of our contractors, you do a fantastic job and we appreciate all of your hard work. Til next year!
