TOP 50 PLACING AGAIN FOR FAIRBAIRN
PRIVATE BANK!
Fairbairn Private Bank has once again been
voted one of the Best Small Companies To Work For, according to
this year’s Sunday Times top 100 Listing published this month.
With offices in the IOM and Jersey, the
company celebrates its inclusion in the Top 100 listing for the
fourth year running, having risen to number 42. Fairbairn Private
Bank is the only company to have continually moved up in the
ratings for four consecutive years. The bank also remains the only
British offshore island financial services organisation to be
featured in this highly coveted listing.
The Sunday Times sponsored survey aims to
identify the best employers in the British Isles, and is based
exclusively on employee opinion. It is the definitive guide
to workplace excellence amongst small businesses and is the largest
survey of its kind, growing this year to incorporate the opinions
of over 32,000 employees across more than 500 companies in this
sector alone. Staff praise the sound moral principles upon which
the bank is run (87%, ranking 19th), and highlighted their belief
that profit was not the only thing driving the organisation (81%,
ranking 16th). The bank was rated 12th
overall for giving something back to society, and into
environmental protection with a 75% positive score, its highest
factor ranking.
Greg Horton, Fairbairn Private Bank’s
managing director, commented, “I am immensely proud of all the
effort and commitment shown by the team.” Greg went on to explain,
“What is so important about this prestigious accolade is that the
data for the ranking is taken directly from our staff and the
result provides a powerful statement to the outside world about our
workplace environment and commitment to our Group’s values. “
This latest accolade follows a long list of
awards for the bank, one of which was the ‘outstanding’
accreditation achieved in this year’s UK Best Companies Guide,
published earlier in the year.
