Coventry Building Society has been named one of the UK’s Best Workplaces for Women by Great Place to Work.
The Society ranked 15th out of the 55 Super Large organisations on the list just published.
The mutual earned its place for the second year running, following feedback from the annual employee survey. These results are based on what women have anonymously reported about their workplace experience and how well represented they are in the workforce.
To determine the position on the list, Great Place to Work analysed the Society’s efforts to support and empower women through its workplace culture. Together with the survey results, the data was evaluated to benchmark the effectiveness of what a company says it offers against the culture their employees actually experience.
Earlier this year, the Society was also named as the one of the UK’s Best Workplaces by Great Place to Work – ranking 13th out of 57 ‘super large’ organisations.
Lucy Becque, chief people officer at Coventry Building Society, said: “This is fabulous recognition for the Society – not just for the women who work here, but for everyone. It shows that the Society supports women to have a positive experience at work and it also recognises the importance of women throughout our organisation.
“It comes during the same week we announced our B Corp certification, which is another huge accolade that demonstrates we’re a people-first organisation through and through. It’s so important to us that everyone – whether that’s colleagues, members, or people in the wider community – feels welcome and included.”
