This prestigious national recognition highlights our unwavering commitment to putting our people first—and celebrates the exceptional culture we’ve built together.
The Sunday Times Best Places to Work list, published today, recognises over 500 of the UK’s top employers across all sectors and business sizes. It specifically honours organisations that go above and beyond for women, LGBTQIA+ employees, disabled team members, ethnic minorities, and both younger and older workers.

A Win for Our People
At Edison Smart, we believe our success is entirely down to the incredible people who bring their passion, innovation, and dedication to work every single day. Being named a Best Place to Work is more than an accolade, it’s a reflection of our culture of trust, empowerment, inclusivity, and wellbeing.
This recognition is built on real data: our team participated in WorkL’s rigorous employee engagement survey, which measures organisations against a proven six-step framework:
- Reward and Recognition
- Instilling Pride
- Information Sharing
- Empowerment
- Wellbeing
- Job Satisfaction
We are especially proud that our results demonstrate strong performance across every category—proof that our people feel valued, heard, and empowered in their roles.
