Woolcool® Named One of the UK’s Best Places to Work for the Second Year Running

We’re incredibly proud to announce that Woolcool® has once again been recognised as one of the UK’s Best Places to Work by The Sunday Times, in partnership with employee experience platform WorkL, marking our second consecutive year receiving this well deserved accolade 

To be recognised once is an honour. To achieve it for a second year in a row is something truly special.

We have always believed that businesses can, and should be a force for good. As pioneers in sustainable insulated packaging and the first packaging company of our kind to become B Corp certified, we know that creating positive impact starts with people. This award reflects the culture we continue to build together; one that values wellbeing, growth, inclusivity and purpose just as much as innovation and sustainability.

Our people are at the heart of everything we do. From manufacturing and operations to customer service, innovation and leadership, every individual at Woolcool plays a vital role in shaping who we are as a business.

This recognition belongs entirely to them.

We are committed to ensuring every team member feels supported, valued and empowered to grow in the direction that matters most to them. Whether through professional qualifications such as NVQs, Health & Safety training, FLT certifications and degree programmes, or opportunities focused on wider personal development including Mental Health awareness, EDI and Carbon Literacy training, we continue to invest in our people at every level.

Alongside development opportunities, we are proud to offer initiatives and benefits that help support a healthy work-life balance and positive workplace culture, including flexible working, our cycle to work scheme, birthday holidays, additional holiday schemes, team events and our Woolcool rewards programme.

The Sunday Times Best Places to Work survey, powered by WorkL, evaluates organisations through a detailed employee engagement survey based on six key pillars: Reward & Recognition, Instilling Pride, Information Sharing, Empowerment, Wellbeing and Job Satisfaction. The award celebrates organisations where employees feel genuinely supported, engaged and able to thrive.

As a business, we understand that success comes from creating an environment where people can be themselves, feel respected and know their contributions matter. Diversity, collaboration and shared purpose continue to be some of Woolcool®'s greatest strengths, and we are proud to champion a workplace culture that reflects those values every day.

“Being recognised as one of the best places to work two years in a row is an incredibly proud moment for all of us at Woolcool®. It is a reflection of the culture our team has built together: supportive, innovative and driven by purpose. We are constantly striving to create an environment where people feel valued and empowered, and this recognition reinforces just how important our people are to everything we achieve.”
— Josie Morris, CEO

As Woolcool® continues to grow, our commitment remains the same: to lead with purpose, support our people and continue building a workplace where individuals can thrive both personally and professionally.

To be recognised once again among the UK’s Best Places to Work is an achievement we are immensely proud of and one we owe entirely to our incredible team.
