The very first Tesco Outstanding Officer Award goes to Mohammed Jahed Miah!
Jahed has worked on the Tesco security contract since the trial project began in 2020 and has been part of the mobile support team for three years. Jahed is recognised on a regular basis for the support he gives stores and the wider team.
Jahed has been recognised by Tesco for showcasing what “great” looks like for the Mobile Support Teams and collaborating with the ‘Tesco CCTV HUB’ to deter a prolific OCG (Organised Crime Group) who were targeting phone shops in stores in the Manchester area. Jahed was particularly praised for the way the incident was dealt with safely.
Being aware that the offenders were known to carry weapons, Jahed acti-vated his body camera and kept a safe distance in line with the client’s ‘Protecting My Personal Safety’ guid-ance, not only preventing a potential risk to customers and colleagues but also preventing a theft of over £4,000!
Jahed then went further and contacted the Tesco CCTV HUB, local police, and the Carlisle MST (Mobile Support Team) on the ground to ensure other stores in the area were aware of the risk. This is a perfect example of the work the MST do and the value they add.
Jahed was lost for words when he was presented with his award by the Tesco security leadership team (pictured) comprised of Andy Sanderson, Head of UK Security, Joe Rutlidge, UK Guarding and External Partnerships Manager and Brogan Lowe, Regional Guarding Capability Partner.
Thank you and huge well-done Jahed! Brilliant recognition for the continu-ous support given to our customers, colleagues, and stores on the Tesco contract.
