E-Commerce Company Makes Move

International e-commerce specialist Superb Media has moved to Torbay’s EPIC Centre.

The company has more than 120 staff, with offices in Barcelona, London, Nottingham and Ukraine. Their clients have included Tripp Luggage, Usborne Publishing, Defected Records, Missy Empire and Portmeirion Group.

The move has created three new jobs, and they plan to expand further into the centre this year.

Matthew Blay, co-founder and managing director of Superb, said: “The company and I had aspirations of finding a suitable location in the South West to grow the business. We are passionate about our work, and when we saw the offices at EPIC we immediately had a vision of how we would set up and how we could provide opportunities to local experts.”

Wayne Loschi, EPIC Centre director, said: “Superb is a great addition to EPIC. Matt and his team have a top-floor office with stunning sea views and have invested heavily in branding the space. They have exciting growth plans and are working with high-profile multinational customers. We look forward to working with Superb to raise the profile of EPIC, its businesses and the wider hi-tech sector.”

Moving to new offices is the perfect time to assess your time and attendance system.

Many office-based companies don’t believe that they need a structured attendance monitoring system, but we argue that the data from our attendance system can gather will boost efficiency. As we say at Time and Attendance South West, a time and attendance system isn’t Big Brother, it just gives you the big picture!

You may not need to know the exact timings of your salaried staff as a boss or a manager, but HR might find a full history of their timings very important if you ask them to put a member of staff on a disciplinary for lateness.

Without careful documentation, proving lateness could be difficult.

Many companies still operate on a casual “Just let me know,” attitude, which make it difficult to clearly state how many absences they might have had over a certain time period without laboriously scrolling through texts or emails.

With our centralised time and attendance system, HR can see everyone’s clocking data for whom they have permission, and quickly and easily export this or format it into reports using our report wizard or advanced report creation settings.

Staff can clock in either using our physical terminals, which work with fingerprints and/or radio-frequency smartcards, or if physical terminals cannot be installed then we can offer an online/app-based clocking in service called the Self-Service Module (SSM).

The mobile app version can also utilise GPS to tell you the location of employees as they clock in, which is useful for remote workers.
