Coventry BS seen as one of the country’s best workplaces

Published on

Coventry Building Society has been named one of the UK’s Best Workplaces by Great Place to Work for the third year running.

The Society ranked 11th out of the 50 Super Large organisations on the list, climbing six places in three years, and holding the position of the highest ranked super-large organisation based in the Midlands.

The award acknowledges the Society’s ongoing commitment to provide a supportive and inclusive work environment where employees can take pride in their jobs, trust their leaders, feel part of a team and realise their full potential.

As well as being named one of the UK’s Best Workplaces, the Society also received three additional Best Workplace accolades over the course of last year. The Society was named, One of UK’s Best Workplaces for Women, one of the UK’s Best Workplaces for Wellbeing, and one of the UK’s Best Workplaces in Financial Services.

Lucy Becque, chief people officer at Coventry Building Society, said: “I’m absolutely thrilled that we’ve been named one of the Best Workplaces in the UK for the third year running. Improving on our position in the league table every year is an achievement in itself, but this year, our category has grown again so it’s even more amazing to see us climbing the ranks.

“To be named on this list for three years running means we’re clearly doing a lot of things right. We’re focused on empowering everyone to bring their best selves to work and to make each day enjoyable and rewarding for themselves and their colleagues. A happy and engaged workforce is ultimately great for our members too. And that shows in our customer satisfaction scores which consistently top the charts.

“We had an outstanding response rate to the colleague survey which means we can be confident that our place in the league table is a true reflection of how people feel about working here. Everyone is immensely proud of the award and we’ll continue listening to colleague feedback to make sure we keep getting better.”
