Campaign Best Places To Work 2023

Last night, we were proud sponsors once again of Campaign’s annual Best Places To Work awards. The event saw 150 guests from 80 agencies (including some of our own clients) make an appearance at the fantastic venue – 10 Union Street, just off of Borough High Street.

As always, the awards focused on how businesses look after the wellbeing of their staff through the combination of culture, benefits and remuneration. In the face of the cost-of-living crisis and the difficulties of retaining and recruiting talent, crafting the most attractive employee benefits package has never been more important.

After a record number of entries to this year’s awards, Campaign created a Top 100 list of companies. These were then assessed and ranked, and category awards given to the best Large, Medium, Small and Boutique sized organisations.

Colin Fleming, COO and head of our Benefits Consulting team gave a brief summary of current market trends and challenges in the benefits space and then jointly presented the awards with Campaign Editor, Nicola Merrifield.

Congratulations to all those companies who made the Top 100, were short-listed for category awards, or picked up an actual winner’s prize on the night.

The winners of the four categories were:

Large – the7stars

Havas London took second place, with Taboola, Zenith and Journey Further ranked third, fourth and fifth.
