4PS UK named one of the UK’s Best Workplaces for Development™ 2025

We’re thrilled to share that 4PS UK has been officially recognised as one of the UK’s Best Workplaces for Development™ 2025!  4PS UK has officially ranked 27 among the 100 organisations on the list.

This prestigious recognition, introduced by Great Place to Work® UK, highlights organisations that put employee development at the heart of their company culture. It celebrates workplaces that empower their teams to grow, learn, and thrive with personalised support and development opportunities.  View the full list here.

Why This Recognition Matters

The UK’s Best Workplaces for Development List acknowledges companies that go beyond standard training. These organisations understand that development is not one-size-fits-all, and they actively invest in nurturing each employee’s unique growth journey.

At 4PS UK, we’ve made learning and development a core priority. Over the past few years, we’ve introduced several new policies and initiatives to support career progression, professional growth, and personal wellbeing.

Our inclusion on this list is a testament to our ongoing efforts to:

• Foster a culture of continuous learning

• Encourage personal and professional growth

• Create inclusive, supportive environments for all employees

What Makes 4PS UK one of the Best Workplaces for Development

To determine the winners, Great Place to Work® UK analysed both our internal practices and anonymous feedback from our team. They evaluated how well our employee experience matches our cultural claims — and the results speak for themselves.

One employee shared:

“I feel wellbeing and social inclusion are actively promoted within the business. With regular yoga and reflexology sessions provided, alongside unique activities like miniature figure painting and team-building events, I feel comfortable and included. I also value the diversity of my colleagues and enjoy learning about different cultures through ‘bring and share’ lunches.”

This type of feedback reflects our values of fairness, inclusion, and authentic connection, and shows how we’re creating a workplace where everyone can bring their full selves to work.

Leadership Perspective

Jyrki Martikainen, Managing Director at 4PS UK, said:

“Being named one of the UK’s Best Workplaces for Development reflects our commitment to creating an environment where people are supported and inspired to grow. We believe development is about more than skills – it’s about unlocking potential and building a culture where people thrive.”

Benedict Gautrey, Managing Director of Great Place to Work® UK, added:

“Training and development aren’t just about helping employees perform their day-to-day tasks – it’s about demonstrating that people are valued and that there’s a clear path for growth. When employees can’t see opportunities ahead, they’re less likely to be fully engaged, which can harm both productivity and retention. Congratulations to 4PS UK for being part of our 2025 UK’s Best Workplaces for Development List.”
