We are delighted to announce that we have been named as one of Newsweek’s 2023 Top 100 and Top 10  Most Loved Workplaces in the UK.

Featuring at Number 7 on the list, which is produced by Newsweek in collaboration with Best Practice Institute, recognises our efforts to create a place where our team feels respected, inspired and appreciated, and features at the very centre of our business model.

David Deacon, Chief People Officer says:

We are honoured to join other illustrious names such as Virgin Atlantic and OVO Energy at our very first attempt. Coming in at number 7 on the list is a source of great pride and a tribute to our brilliant people.

This is a great achievement and one that reflects our continued journey towards a truly open, transparent, and positive leadership style. We are determined to create a great working experience where our teams have the best possible chance of success and growth, and while this is still a work in progress, our appearance on this list proves we are on the right track. And as a global employer we now have our sights firmly set on a place on the Top 100 Global Most Loved Companies list for 2024.

The key areas included in the analysis include Systemic Collaboration, Positive Vision of the Future, Alignment of values, Respect, and Killer Achievement. Employee sentiments and emotions indicating how engaged employees are, how positive they feel about their workplace, and how committed they are to the organization’s success were also analysed to identify the Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces.

With the rapidly changing workplace and competition for top talent, more companies are recognizing the importance of employee engagement and commitment. The workplaces that have demonstrated a commitment to their employees in 2023 are more likely to attract the best talent and deliver strong business outcomes. said Nancy Cooper, Global Editor in Chief, Newsweek.

Louis Carter, CEO of Best Practice Institute said:

Fully understanding and acting upon employee sentiment, emotion, and recommendations continues to be a challenge and top priority of executive leadership. The companies on this list have committed to listening carefully to their employees to create a workplace employees love.
