Best Company recognition for Home Instead

The 3-star accreditation focuses on the 70-plus team that work at the national office in Warrington, Cheshire

Home Instead‘s national office has once again been recognised as one of the best places to work. Its national office has earned a 3-star accreditation from Best Companies, an organisation working to build better workplaces.

The recognition focuses on the 70-plus team that work at the national office in Warrington, Cheshire – the nerve centre of the operation that supports its network of 226 franchise offices across the UK.

The 3-star accreditation is the highest achievable and means that the company has attained ‘world class’ levels of engagement in the team.

People director at Home Instead, Karen Dakin, said: “We are delighted to achieve the Best Companies’ 3-star accreditation. It is a great recognition of how connected we are as a team at Home Instead in achieving our vision of changing the face of ageing.

“We are very proud of the team. They have been and are amazing, and we truly thank everyone for their outstanding commitment especially through lockdown and remote working.”

Home Instead wants to be recognised as a company that people aspire to work for, with or recommend, and this accreditation is a testament to that.

The national office team have worked hard to support its franchise network through the pandemic and adding to Karen’s comments, CEO Martin Jones said: “I am really proud that we have been awarded a ‘world class’ 3-star rating. As a mission-led business, we all share a common purpose, and this feeds into our culture and everything we do as a team.

“The last year has been challenging for everyone in the team. To achieve world-class levels of engagement, this year more than ever bears testament to our team spirit and the support we give each other. It’s fair to say that the pandemic has drawn the best out of us. Well done everyone.”
