Best Company to Work For Softcat
Judges’ comments: This year’s finalists demonstrate the range of outstanding charitable organisations we have across our region, and we thank you all.
Charites more than ever have to adapt, and our winners this year best demonstrated a clear strategy that through technology, training, structure and governance are bringing a organisational transformation to further increase and expand services to its beneficiaries.
Other finalists:
Berkshire Community Foundation Building For the Future DEBRA
Dingley’s Promise Thrive
Judges’ comments: From the moment we walked into this company, we felt its ‘authenticity’. Despite having floated, it has managed to keep its inherent ‘anti-corporate’ culture throughout a three-year transition.
This company had real depth in what it’s already done to make a fun and exciting place to work, plus what it has on its agenda to make it even better.
Other finalists: BDO UK
Blue Apple Contract Catering Crowe Roc Search Shoosmiths STL Communications
Dynamic Business of the Year AVK-SEG
Business of the Year Ultima Business Solutions
Judges’ comments: Our winner has created a very profitable and cash generative global business in a rapidly changing, challenging, and highly-regulated marketplace, which illustrates its ability to oversee various functions effectively. AVK-SEG is also servicing ‘trophy clients’ such as NHS, RBS, JP Morgan, and many more, by virtue of its substantial experience, knowledge and dynamism. We are proud to be associated with this business.
