The new Astute #SocialTeam excelled themselves with our recent big night out at Oasis Fun. Not that Astutians are competitive or anything, but we do love a chance to be crowned winner – so huge congrats to “Top Shelf Material”, Astute Bowling Champions 2017, and to our international team, “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Gutter”, who claimed the Adventure Golf trophy. Extra special high-fives go to Pippa, the overall Bowling Kingpin, and Jason, our Individual Golf Champ. Mad skills, all…

Game faces – check. Stomachs lined – check. Rocky theme tune playing in your head – check.

There are two sorts of people in the world: those that like pizza, and those that love pizza. Both can be found in our Inside Sales team, seen here enjoying a suitably tasty and circular incentive win. But which sort are you? Like for Team Like, Share for Team Love.

In this year’s Christmas headlines, Yuletide Carol’s getting trolled again for being ancient, and there has been a sharp rise in the number of Halls getting decked by complete strangers. So we thought we’d share some love with all of you wonderful people that have made 2016 such a magical year for us at Astute.

Generating over 100 sales in a month is thirsty work, so when our Inside Sales team achieved just that, we had to take them out for lunch and drinks at Revolution Bournemouth to celebrate. Who knew sales could be so tasty?

Just like on The Apprentice, we decided that the winners of our Network Infrastructure Team Awards should be given a treat for going above and beyond – so to get them in the mood for winter we gave them a night out at Snowtrax! Check out their ringo skills!

Our Mobility & Telecoms team generated 200 small business leads in a month whilst also hitting all their other internal targets. What’s that? You think that means these dudes deserved a night out at the bowling at Bowlplex Branksome followed by a slap up curry at Taj Mahal, Westbourne?
