Wright Hassall recognised as top workplace

Wright Hassall, is celebrating a significant achievement by being recognised as one of the UK’s Best Workplaces in Consulting and Professional Services for 2025. Based in Leamington, this accolade comes from Great Place To Work, a noted ‘employer-of-choice’ certification scheme which evaluates companies based on the experiences of their employees. Notably, Wright Hassall was acknowledged in the small to medium-sized category.

Benedict Gautrey, Managing Director of Great Place To Work UK, also highlighted the vital role of employee support during times of change in consulting and professional services. He remarked, “Employees in consulting and professional services are under increasing pressure to perform amidst digital transformation and shifting client expectations reshaping how people work.” He noted that the best workplaces in this sector differentiate themselves by actively supporting their employees through these transitions. “Employees have shared with us that clear, consistent communication from leadership, and a focus on inclusive decision-making, have helped to ensure colleagues feel supported, informed, and empowered,” he added. Gautrey concluded with congratulations to Wright Hassall for cultivating a positive workplace culture and earning the esteemed recognition, stating, “Congratulations Wright Hassall on creating a truly great workplace, and earning recognition as a UK’s Best Workplace in Consulting & Professional Services.”
