An investment company with offices in Gloucestershire and London has been named one of the best places to work for in the UK.
Hunter Gatherer Group was ranked fourth in the best small companies league table for 2022, which is compiled by workplace engagement specialist Best Companies and is based on employee surveys.
The firm, which is based in Chipping Campden in the South West and on Tabernacle Street in the capital, also also achieved a three-star accreditation, awarded to organisations of all sizes that meet "world-class levels" of workplace engagement.
The announcement was made at a Best Companies live event on May 20 by TV and sports presenter Dan Walker.
Gavin Johnstone, founder and chief executive of Hunter Gatherer Group said, “In a world facing economic, political, and social uncertainty, the workplace must provide security, wellbeing and opportunity for all its people.
"When we started our first company, our aim and aspiration was for our people to have a sense of pride in the business and know that it provided the very best opportunity for careers to flourish. This accreditation reaffirms that aspiration and is testament to our ongoing growth and success.”
Hunter Gatherer owns and invests in human capital companies and is made up of four businesses. Over the course of the last year, the group said it had "continued its track record" of building companies at scale.
It has already made new investments in the renewable energy and technology sector in 2022, it said.
Benton Robertson, managing director of Hunter Gatherer and AHP/MH Resourcing, a Hunter Gatherer Group company, added: "With a motivational culture and a progressive career pathway we strive to retain all our wonderful employees.
"The collective hard work and enthusiasm of all at Hunter Gatherer Group has created a special environment and its fantastic to be recognised as one of the top 10 companies to work for in the UK.”
Another South West company also received an accolade at the Best Companies live event last week. Albert Goodman, an accountancy firm with offices in Somerset, Bristol and Dorset, was named the best accountants to work for in the country.
It received a two-star accreditation as an outstanding place to work.
