EVOLVE Advice celebrates retaining Great Place To Work® certification

EVOLVE Advice is celebrating being certified a Great Place To Work for the second year running.

The prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at EVOLVE Advice. An incredible 93% of employees said it’s a great place to work compared to 54% of employees at a typical UK based company.

The Great Place To Work mark is awarded on the basis of a research-backed employee survey, the Trust Index™. EVOLVE Advice’s results were outstanding, including:.

93% say I am proud to tell people I work here

93% say you can count on people to cooperate

Employees spoke of their pride to work at EVOLVE Advice and how they felt they could be themselves. They welcomed perks such as health insurance, flexibility and wellbeing days but the main drivers of employee satisfaction were being part of a business where work has a special meaning, being appreciated and a supportive team where everyone gives their best.

Jake Wiid, Director and Founder at EVOLVE Advice says:

“I’m delighted that the results of our employee survey remain so positive. We’ve continued to focus on supporting and developing the team over the last year and it’s great to hear that both new and longer-serving team members find this such a positive place to work.”

“We’ve welcomed new team members across the business – and continue to adapt and improve the way we support our schools – it’s a sign of a great team that people felt this was a strength and highlighted feeling appreciated for their efforts.”

According to Great Place To Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified great workplace. Additionally, employees at Certified workplaces are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work, and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits and have a fair chance at promotion.

Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work says:

"Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience. By successfully earning this award, it is evident that EVOLVE Advice stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees."
