Standard Life has appointed venue sourcing agency Conference Care as its preferred supplier for venue finding services.

The savings and investment company invited tenders for the provision of venue sourcing services at the end of last year and, following a competitive pitch, Coventry-based Conference Care was appointed.

Conference Care’s head of sales for Scotland, Pauline Beattie, said: “Conference Care is uniquely positioned, both in terms of an all encompassing resource and experience, to deliver the goals set by Standard Life. We are absolutely delighted to have been awarded preferred supplier status and look forward to supporting the Standard Life teams throughout the UK as the relationship develops – proving we’re always prepared to go the extra mile.”

Avril Gray, procurement manager at Standard Life, added: “Conference Care scored high in the key areas we were looking for and we look forward to working with them in the future.”
