We are honoured to be recognised among the Top 5 ‘Best Large Companies to Work For in the UK’ as well as securing the number 2 spot in the ‘Best Education and Training Companies in the UK’.
Each year Best Companies compile a list of organisations that are dedicated to doing the right thing, prioritise their people and recognise the significance of a highly engaged workforce. Businesses placed on the list are committed to their employees, acknowledging that they are a crucial part to their success. Celebrating at the prestigious event in Battersea Evolution in London, companies from all over the UK came together to celebrate.
