A COMPANY that offers properties to professionals relocating for their jobs has won a prestigious national award for its work.

SACO, who have offices in Jersey, won the accolade at the inaugural awards organised by Relocate magazine. Relocate is a publication that helps employees and their families when they move for a new job.

SACO won the Best Property Provider or Solution prize for its global network of apartments, customer service, training programme and commitment to the environment and the company was described by judges as being ‘a small company that delivers big service’.

The award was presented at a ceremony for the Institute of Directors and is the second prize won by SACO this year. The first award saw them named one of ‘The Best Companies to Work For’ in a scheme associated with The Sunday Times.
