We’re proud to share that Survey Solutions has officially been certified as a Great Place to Work®!

This certification reflects the feedback given from our teams across the business. Thank you to everyone who took part in the survey and to all the managers who supported it so actively, your engagement made this possible.

What the certification means

Great Place to Work is the global authority on workplace culture. The certification is based on direct feedback from employees and a detailed review of the company’s values, practices and people experience. It recognises the organisations that are genuinely building trust, fairness and collaboration into their culture.

Why this matters

Our employee engagement scores have been improving year after year. We’ve had great feedback through our own internal surveys, and through conversations with both new and long-standing team members. Until now, we hadn’t formalised that progress through an external accreditation. That’s now changed.

We’ve been acting on feedback for some time, introducing new benefits, running employee workshops, and making changes that genuinely improve how it feels to work here. It’s helped us attract brilliant people and keep making Survey Solutions a place where good people want to stay and do their best work.

“We’ve worked hard over the years to make Survey Solutions a great place to work, so it’s incredibly rewarding to now be formally recognised with this certification. It reflects our continued efforts to support and invest in our people, whether that’s improving benefits, listening to feedback, or investing in new tools like our Learning Management System, which makes training more accessible for our remote team members. One of the things our people value most is the amazing colleagues they work with—we’re lucky to have such a talented, dedicated team. I’m incredibly proud to be part of this team and everything we’ve achieved together to build a culture we can all be proud of.”

Key Results:

 

  • 74% of employees at Survey Solutions say it is a great place to work, compared to 54% of employees at a typical UK based company.
  • 97% strongly agreed that people are treated fairly regardless of their race.
  • 96% strongly agreed that people are treated fairly regardless of their sexual orientation.
  • 92% strongly agreed that people are treated fairly regardless of their gender.
  • 88% strongly agreed that when people join the company, they are made to feel welcome
  • 87% of people strongly agreed this is a physically safe place to work

These scores reflect the emphasis we place on inclusion and wellbeing across our business. We know that when people feel supported, they perform at their best, so we invest in the whole person, not just the job they do. In fact, 90% of our people said they feel able to take time off work when they need to. Our wellbeing offer includes access to a free helpline, flexible holidays and hours, structured counselling, and trained mental health first aiders across the business.

Encouragingly, our strong results around physical safety are especially meaningful given the environments we work in. They’re a credit to the ongoing investment we make in health and safety culture, from regular internal workshops to practical incentives like our ‘Near Miss of the Month’ recognition.

Joining Survey Solutions has been an incredible experience, It’s a fantastic company that values its employees, fosters growth, and offers a positive work environment. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fulfilling career.

What’s next

This is a fantastic result for Survey Solutions and a credit to everyone involved. Thank you again for the part you play in making this a place where people want to stay and grow.
