Why Employer of the Year?

We're incredibly proud to have been named Employer of the Year at the British Business Awards.

 

The award recognises organisations that create outstanding workplaces where people can develop, succeed and make a meaningful impact. 

 

For us, it's recognition of the dedication of more than 30,000 colleagues across the UK and Ireland, whose passion, commitment and care make Sodexo what it is today. 

 

While we're honoured to receive this recognition, we know the real achievement isn't the award itself – it's continuing to create opportunities, support careers and make every day a better day for our people.
