End-of-Year Staff Awards 2021

Stepping into a fresh new year, it's important for us to reflect on the simply fantastic work each and every one of our team members have achieved here at Netmatters in 2021. The entirety of the team at Netmatters demonstrated their T.R.U.E values, which stood out in a particularly abnormal year once again. 

The end-of-year staff awards highlight and recognise those who always go the extra mile to achieve fantastic results within their work. We have a variety of awards up for grabs, as we feel it is important to reflect on those who have performed exceptionally throughout the year in different areas.

Welcoming many new recruits across all departments and celebrating the Long Service Award for multiple members in the team during 2021, we've seen the Netmatters family go from strength to strength. Join us in celebrating our annual end-of-year staff awards!
