An online computer management company based in Finchley has been awarded for its "excellent" services.

The Internet Group, which has its main offices in Dollis Park, has been named Best Place to Work in IT Services, 2008, by IT title Computer Weekly.

The awards are handed out to organisations that provide excellent training, career development and good work environments.

Judges were particularly impressed by the group's development of a company share scheme, the provision of eco-friendly electric pool cars, and the adoption of ethically and environmentally responsible solutions to dispose of old computers.

Other winners included Sainsbury's, Proctor & Gamble and Yorkshire Water.

Mitchell Feldman, Managing Director of The Internet Group, said: "We are absolutely delighted to have won this award.

"Our company has always tried to provide a 'career', something more than a job, something you want to get out of bed for, and to be recognised in this way alongside the likes of Sainsbury's is a great achievement."

The company, founded in 1999, was nominated for the first time last year.

Mr Feldman said they now hope to continue to grow and provide top rate business-class technology management.

"We work hard to create a vibrant, diverse, and friendly work environment.

"Just as this makes it a better place to work, so investing in the IT team's continued professional development has direct benefits on our organisation's capabilities and performance."
