Cobus Communications: A Story of Growth and Achievement
Over the years, the Cobus Communications Group has grown into a prominent and well-respected brand in the telecommunications and security sector. With a proven track record of excellence, the company continues to evolve, reaching new heights in performance, innovation, and customer satisfaction.
Company Performance
Cobus has demonstrated robust financial performance while operating within a challenging economic climate. The company has solidified its reputation as a leader in its sector that’s driven by a commitment to quality, customer-centric solutions, and constant adaptation to the latest in technological progression. Our continued focus on delivering a superior level of service has resulted in an expanding client base and repeat business.
Milestone Moments
Over the past 33-years, Cobus has experienced several key and memorable milestones. From securing prestigious and innovative contracts to expanding our presence in new markets, each step has been pivotal in establishing the company as a trusted name. One of our proudest achievements in recent years is our dynamic expansion into cloud-based telecommunications solutions, positioning us at the forefront of industry innovation and a true leader in our chosen operational areas. Additionally, our declaration to becoming greener by working on new initiatives will see a year-on-year reduction in our carbon-footprint that has underscored our commitment to reducing climate change, while improving health, and sustainability.
Significant Internal Promotions & External Hires
Cobus believes in investing in people. Several key internal promotions have strengthened our leadership team, showcasing the value we place on nurturing talent from within. Notably, Emma Waudby, previously head of Sales & Marketing, was promoted to Operations Director, leading several strategic initiatives that have propelled our operational excellence.
Externally, we’ve made significant hires, bringing in top talent to reinforce our growth strategy. Georgina Bishop, who joined Cobus in a new role as Customer Experience Manager, bringing fresh insights to help us further develop our commitment to a positive culture, health and wellbeing, and Marc Hutchinson as the newly appointed Customer Service Manager, who brings a wealth of experience which will help Cobus to penetrate new markets.
Major Contracts Won
Cobus has secured some game-changing contracts that have contributed to our continued success. Most recently, we resigned a long-term contract with Beal Homes, a major player in the house building industry, to provide end-to-end telecommunications, business mobiles, and UCaaS solutions, across their multi-site operation. This achievement not only highlights our capability as a multi-service provider to business organisations of all sizes, and across all sectors, but also underscores the trust that leading brands place in our expertise and delivery.
Investments Made
Our success is built on continuous investment in technology and innovation. In recent years, Cobus has made substantial investments in state-of-the-art infrastructure, including upgrading our operational systems and platforms which has allowed us to expand our portfolio of product and service solutions. These investments ensure that we remain ahead of the curve, offering our clients the latest and most secure solutions, while keeping budgets in mind.
Future Ambitions
Looking ahead, Cobus is poised for even greater success. Our ambitions are bold as we aim to double our revenue within the next three years by expanding our operational footprint and enhancing our service offerings. We are committed to staying at the cutting edge of technology, ensuring that our clients benefit from the latest innovations in telecommunications and security solutions.
Success Stories
Beyond numbers and contracts, Cobus is proud of its role in transforming businesses. Our work with Airkool, an independent family business since 1982, not only provided them with a bespoke telecommunications solution but also resulted in notable increases in their operational efficiency. Additionally, our long-standing partnership with PureTec Fitness, an international leader in high quality home gym equipment, and OceanBlue, who provide haulage and freight across the UK and worldwide via air, road, and sea, has seen them grow and improve their customer experience alongside us, demonstrating the power of collaborative success.
Community and Charity engagement
The Cobus Foundation has continued to provide support to several local charitable organisations such as Hull4Heroes and HEY Powerchair Football Club, with sponsorship, donations, gifted services, business contacts and acumen. Team members support the local education sector as governors, mentors, and support workers, to ensure that we are helping to shape the workforce and industry leaders of tomorrow.
