AXON receives laureate award from UK Great Place to Work®

AXON Communications is delighted to announce the agency has been recognised by Great Place to Work® as one of the UK’s Best Workplaces for the fifth consecutive year, thereby earning a Laureate award. AXON is the only healthcare communications agency in the mid-sized category (51–250 employees) to receive an award. These accolades follow the recent news that the agency is one of the top 10 UK Healthcare Communications Consultancies in PRWeek’s Top 150 list.

The rigorous methodology behind the Best Workplace awards includes an anonymous Trust Index employee survey, as well as a thorough audit of the company’s HR and management policies. Great Place to Work® has previously recognised AXON in the areas of Best Workplaces™ for Women and Excellence in Wellbeing™.

AXON invests heavily in its workplace culture to support its objective to be an employer of choice and empowers the team to help achieve this objective. Staff-led groups manage an engaging social calendar (which continues to be very active in the current virtual environment), an ambitious approach to corporate social responsibility, marketing activities, initiatives to attract new talent, training sessions, and coordination of new business activities at every level. Wellbeing is a central driver across all aspects of the business, and in 2019, AXON became the first healthcare communications agency to sign the Time to Change Employer Pledge.

“It’s fantastic news that we’ve achieved the milestone Laureate status, particularly as there are so many people still with the agency who remember the first time we won,” said Miranda Dini, Managing Partner of AXON. “It’s bittersweet that we can’t all be together to celebrate, but the pandemic has taught us that the AXON culture is far stronger than a physical office or where we all sit. We’re coming together as a team now more than ever, and we’re getting through these times because we can lean on our colleagues.”
