Skipton Building Society has been named the third best big company to work for in the UK.
This is the third year in a row that Skipton has been named in the top 10 Best Big Companies to Work For, and the Society’s rise to third is an improvement on its seventh position in 2021.
Assessed quarterly, with new businesses entering each quarter the complete 2022 league table results were finalised following a series of colleague surveys by Best Companies, covering a wide range of engagement areas, in combination with an independent review of data and initiatives.
The final 2022 results were revealed at an awards ceremony in London.
Ian Cornelius, interim chief executive of Skipton Building Society, said: “We work really hard behind the scenes to make Skipton a great place to work, so it’s hugely pleasing to hear that our colleagues continue to really enjoy working here, and helping our customers get the keys to their own homes and save for their futures.
“We’re massively proud of our top 10 performances in 2020 and 2021, so to make the top three spot this year is an unbelievable achievement, a great honour, and a testament to our colleagues who work tirelessly for our 1.1-million customers every day.”
Earlier this year, the Skipton’s 3-star accreditation was also reaffirmed for the third year running, an accolade given to businesses with the highest standard of workplace engagement.
Skipton also walked away with the Best Companies Learning & Development Award at the year-ending ceremony, recognising the commitment of colleagues to their own personal development, as well as the support the Society gives to colleague development, including its successful apprenticeship scheme.
