Leicester-based industrial supplies company Cromwell has been named among the UK’s top employers in the Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Awards 2023. A global supplier of industrial tools, safety, and workplace equipment, Cromwell placed 22nd in the annual ranking of the UK’s top 50 employers, achieving an overall score of 4.6 (out of 5).

The list is compiled annually by Glassdoor, the worldwide leader on insights about jobs and companies, and uses the input of employees who have voluntarily completed an online review about their job, work environment and employer in the past year. The quantity, quality and consistency of reviews is analysed by Glassdoor to determine its top 50 companies.

Managing director Neil Jowsey said: “Being a great place to work is a top priority at Cromwell and we are delighted to have been placed 22nd in the Glassdoor Employee’s Choice Awards 2023. The talent, hard work and passion of our team is central to our success and we have worked hard to ensure we are a place where colleagues feel supported and where they can grow and perform. The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic further strengthened our focus on care and compassion for our staff and we have been working especially hard over the past couple of years to listen to their needs and put extra measures and allowances in place.

“Looking ahead to the rest of the year, our focus will be on providing unbeatable service to our customers as part of our overall goal of being the easiest company to deal with in our sector. By knowing our customers, anticipating and meeting their needs, keeping communication clear, and acting efficiently and reliably, we want Cromwell to be the company of choice for those seeking industrial tools and safety equipment. Our colleagues are vital to achieving this, and we will continue to ensure that they are given the opportunity and support to grow, perform and love what they do.”

Cromwell, headquartered in Leicestershire, was founded more than 50 years ago, and has a network of branches and offices in the UK and worldwide employing over 1,500 people.
