Hawkins is proud to celebrate a remarkable milestone as Helen Child marks 20 years of dedicated service.
Reflecting on her journey, Helen said:
“I started at Hawkins when the Reigate office consisted of just two investigators. Looking back two decades later, and seeing it grow to a team of 29 today, is incredibly rewarding.”
Over the past 20 years, Helen has been a central part of the office’s growth and day-to-day success. Her role has evolved alongside Hawkins, and she credits the variety and constant challenge of the work as a key reason for her long-standing commitment. Helen provides vital support to our road traffic collision investigators, including formatting and issuing reports, downloading document bundles from solicitors, preparing quotes, responding to enquiries, keeping track of deadlines, arranging vehicle examinations, and liaising with solicitors.
“This job has been a gift; no two days are the same, and the sheer talent of my colleagues never ceases to amaze me. Watching them solve complex puzzles from the smallest clues has been an education in itself. I’m so thankful to Hawkins for taking a chance on me to get Reigate off the ground.”
Of course, no 20-year career would be complete without a few memorable moments.
“I’ll never forget the irony of our garden firework display. We nearly gave ourselves a very ‘on brand’ investigation by almost burning down the office next door!”
Helen’s dedication, humour, and unwavering support have made her an invaluable part of Hawkins for two decades. We extend our heartfelt congratulations and thanks to Helen for her outstanding contribution, and look forward to many more years ahead.
