The news follows the company ranking 9th in UK's Best Workplaces™ list for medium-sized businesses earlier in the year.
Great Place To Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and the leadership behaviours proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation.
The certification is based entirely on what current colleagues say about their experience working at Leighton. This year, 96% of colleagues said it’s a great place to work – compared to 54% of employees at a typical UK-based company.
Speaking on the award, James Bunting, CEO at Leighton said: “We’re thrilled to be re-certified as a Great Place To Work®. At Leighton we recognise that our continued success is testament to the hard work of our incredibly talented team.
“Our people are our biggest asset which means ensuring our colleagues love working at Leighton, promoting work-life balance, providing flexibility, prioritising colleague well-being and ensuring they feel valued is a priority.”
The accolade recognises Leighton’s dedication to cultivating a positive people-first company culture and its commitment to enhancing colleague experience. During the survey over 99% of colleagues said that they felt encouraged to balance their work life and their personal life and 99% said they were made to feel welcome when they joined the company.
James continued: “To see the headline outputs from the colleague survey is really encouraging, it means we are achieving the goals we set ourselves as a company and we’re seeing that manifest in colleague feedback. It’s great to know we’re getting something that’s so important, right.”
Leighton places great importance on colleague well-being and offers a comprehensive range of benefits and initiatives to nurture colleagues and help them feel and do their best. Flexibility and choice are central to Leighton’s culture, empowering colleagues to take ownership of their work and career development.
The company recently announced a year of record performance that will lead the company to create over 20 new jobs in the next year, including several high-level positions such as a Chief Consulting Officer to oversee its consultancy offering. To find out more about careers at Leighton, click here.
