Best Companies are the workplace engagement specialists, helping organisations become better places to work by measuring, improving and recognising engagement. Their accreditation programme is the standard of workplace engagement in the UK, recognising organisations and managers who genuinely value and respect their employees.
Coffin Mew has been awarded ‘One to Watch’ status by Best Companies in the 2020 list. Leading organisations ranked in the 2019 survey included The National Trust, The Body Shop and Virgin Holidays.
Good employee engagement, sits at the heart of Coffin Mew’s strategy, enabling the firm to deliver the very best results for their clients. In April 2019, after collaborating with every member of staff, the firm launched its new employee value proposition based on four pillars: engagement, excellence, productivity and well-being.
Liz Cheaney, HR Director at Coffin Mew, said: “Our new approach to flexible and agile working; enhanced benefits for new mums and new dads; our reputation for good worklife/ homelife balance; and our commitment to corporate social responsibility is valued highly by our staff. We’re very proud to have achieved this endorsement from Best Companies.
“We will continue to enhance and refine our offering for our talented people and we have already started on the development of a new Health and Wellbeing Strategy to be launched next year. We have also just invested in a leading digital strategic planning and performance platform ‘Objective Manager’, which we hope will further enhance our Best Companies engagement score next year.”
Jonathan Austin, CEO & Founder of Best Companies, said: “I would like to congratulate Coffin Mew on your achievement. Best Companies have been producing the accreditation standard since 2006 to acknowledge excellence in the workplace. Organisations like Coffin Mew have continued to focus on their employees and have been rewarded with an engaged workforce who tell us that this is a best company to work for.”
