Outrank has landed a spot in the Great Place to Work® Institute’s annual ranking and we’re absolutely delighted to be named as the 77th best small company to work for in the UK.
The Great Place to Work® assessment hinges on trust, respect, fairness, pride, and leadership. It’s a huge deal for us because it considers much more than surface level benefits. It means we’re not just a typical workplace— but a place where everyone’s got each other’s backs, where fairness is woven into our day-to-day, and where we all share in the wins.
“Being recognised as one of the UK’s best places to work is a massive honour and a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team,” states Stephen Robinson, our CEO. “We believe that creating a culture that values every employee’s contribution is essential to our success. Accolades like this go far in motivating us to continue innovating and improving our workplace for the benefit of our team members and clients alike.”
In Our Own Words…
The Great Place to Work® award is particularly special because it comes directly from our people; it means we’re doing something right. The feedback really underscores the solid backing everyone gets to grow personally and professionally, along with the kind of open, no-BS talk that makes our workplace what it is.
“Not only is the company a great place to work, but I’d go as far to say that it’s an incredible place to work! I’ve felt supported from day one and I believe that the boss is invested in us all, as we’re credited on our merits rather than criticised when things sometimes don’t go according to plan.”
“We have a family feel to the company so when a member of the team is going through situations (personal or company) we are all available to help and deal with the situations as easy as possible”
This sense of fulfilment and engagement is further underscored by the outcomes of the survey, which provided valuable insights into our employees’ experiences and thoughts:
- 100% of employees agree they are offered training and development to further themselves professionally, underscoring our commitment to continuous learning and growth.
- 100% of employees agree people are encouraged to balance their work and personal life, highlighting our understanding of the importance of well-being and work-life harmony.
- 95% of employees agree that management has a clear view of where the organisation is going and how to get there, demonstrating strong leadership and a shared vision for the future.
Overall, 95% of employees at Outrank Ltd say it is a great place to work, compared to 54% of employees at a typical UK-based company. The stark difference really shows how much our culture and practices mean to our people and puts us ahead in making a workplace everyone wants to be part of.
Putting You First
The survey results reflect our ethos of “Putting You First.” It’s straightforward but foundational to how we operate, affecting both our internal culture and the way we handle client relationships. By prioritising the needs and well-being of our team, we naturally extend this care to our clients, fostering a positive cycle of trust and success.
Looking ahead, Outrank is poised for continued growth and success. Our focus remains on nurturing our team’s potential and continuing to provide exceptional service to our clients, ensuring that Outrank remains a place where everyone feels valued and empowered.
“As we celebrate this milestone, our vision for the future is clear. We are committed to maintaining our great workplace culture, fostering innovation, and contributing to the broader community,” adds Francesca Scott, our Operations Director. “This recognition is only the beginning. We are excited for what the future holds and are committed to continuing our journey as one of the UK’s best employers.”
Big ambitions, clear plans and strong leadership guide us and it’s all rooted in the belief that putting people first is the surest path to our goals. We’d like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Great Place to Work® for recognising the effort and culture at Outrank. This acknowledgment motivates us even more to keep striving for excellence in everything we do.
