Pfizer - Reaching Out Colleague Involvement Programme

In 2005, Pfizer outsourced the day to day management of its Reaching Out colleague involvement programme to CCWorks, allowing Community Affairs staff to work on strategic direction of the programme.

We handle all staff enquiries with regard to volunteering, payroll giving and matched funding, administer the databases supporting these programmes and carrying out annual staff surveys. In addition we design relaunches and promotions of the programme, coordinate with third-party suppliers such as the payroll giving agency and PR agency and coordinate employees’ activities with the voluntary sector

Outcomes

Cost-effective outsourcing for the client
A range of skills from consultancy to administration support available to the client
"CCWorks are very well tuned in to the voluntary sector both locally and nationally, which helps Pfizer achieve its mission of improving health and well-being in the community"

"We chose to work with CCWorks rather than one of the large volunteering consultancies as we believed they could deliver our pilot, were flexible in their approach and client-focused. Working with them was a great experience and they delivered in all areas"
