Gleeds celebrates accolade for workforce wellbeing 

Property and construction consultancy Gleeds has been named one of the UK’s best workplaces for wellbeing for the second year running.  

The UK’s Best Workplaces for Wellbeing list comprises organisations that prioritise employees’ psychological, physical, financial and social wellbeing.

The accreditation, awarded by Great Place to Work, follows analysis of thousands of employee surveys. 

The surveys asked employees to comment on how the company supports their work-life balance, sense of fulfilment, job satisfaction, psychological safety, and financial security, assessing their holistic experiences of wellbeing at work.  

Kate Williams, UK people director at Gleeds, said: “Once again, Gleeds was one of just a handful of businesses from the built environment to feature in this list. 

“We have prioritised improving the experience of our people in recent years and I think that is reflected in the success we’ve had with Great Place to Work. 

“We care about our employee’s wellbeing and have implemented several initiatives to promote and support it in the workplace, so it’s gratifying to have been recognised with this accolade for the second year in a row.” 

Anthony Cork, managing director of Gleeds UK, Anthony Cork added: “As a consultancy, Gleeds’ core offer is its people and we know that if they are given the right support and the tools to succeed then they’ll bring their best selves to work. That’s why we place such importance on fostering an environment where wellbeing is prioritised consistently and employees feel seen, heard, and valued. 

“This latest accreditation is fantastic, but we couldn’t achieve it without the cooperation of our staff – making Gleeds a truly great place to work is a team effort.”
