SRK Consulting (UK) Winners of the Sunday Times 100 Best Companies to Work for
Success in The Sunday Times Best 100 SMEs
SRK (UK) is celebrating its entry into The Sunday Times 100 Best Small Companies to Work For list. This is the first year the company has applied to be considered for the prestigious listing and, in achieving 91st place, it beat off stiff competition for a place in the elite top one hundred.
The Best Companies survey places great emphasis on the views of employees, with the ranking being awarded based on the scores achieved from feedback on areas such as Leadership, Wellbeing, Belonging, Giving Back and Personal Growth.
The company achieved its highest score for good pay and benefits (85% positive) with everyone having a non-contributory pension, private healthcare and life insurance. Employees said they enjoy working for SRK (84%), feel the company makes a positive difference to the world (67%) and is not exploitative (71%).
Speaking about its success, Dr Mike Armitage, Managing Director SRK (UK), said: “This is a well respected survey and to make the Top 100 on our first attempt is fantastic. What makes this success so meaningful is that the praise has come from the employees themselves. Their feedback and positive impression of the company has inspired us to work even harder to see if we can climb up the listing. Their opinions are the ones that matter. As a company we are delighted to be working as a team with 85 employees we have in our UK office in Cardiff.”
Richard Caseby, Managing Editor at The Sunday Times, describes the top 100 companies as “beacons of excellence, continuing to define leading workplace practice and engaging and motivating their employees even in today's troubled economic times.”
The Sunday Times rankings are awarded on an average of the different employees survey areas:
Leadership – how employees feel about the head of the company and its senior managers
Well being – how employees feel about stress, pressure and the balance between their work and home duties
Belonging – feelings about the company people work for as opposed to the people they work with
Giving Back – how much Companies are thought by their employees to put back into society in general and the local community in particular
Person growth – to what extent employees feel they are stretched and challenged by their job
