Our awards
You may have seen that we’re a Times Top 100 Graduate employer. But when it
comes to awards, that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
In 2006, we were named ‘Global Firm of the Year’. This was the first
year that the firm competed directly with the Big Four for this award. BDO Stoy
Hayward's Managing Partner, Jeremy Newman, also received a personal honour –
‘Personality of the Year’.
Many of our recent awards reflect the way we treat our people.
Our firm has been recognised in a series of awards for its performance as an employer.
We were named as one of the UK’s top employers in the 2008 Sunday Times
‘100 Best Companies to Work For’ survey – and the only accountancy
firm to be included in the main category for a third consecutive year. We were also
selected in the UK’s top 50 workplaces in a report published by the Financial
Times.
The firm was also voted Accountancy Age ‘Employer of the Year’ for an
unprecedented two consecutive years in 2004 and 2005 and was included in The Times
‘Top 50 Places Where Women Want to Work’ in 2007.
The firm’s unique market approach has been recognised by professional service
industry peers in the MPF European Practice Management Awards for the second year
running. The practice was named ‘mould-breaking firm’ of the year.
Judges commented: “BDO Stoy Hayward is breaking
the mould by succeeding in providing a real alternative to the Big Four as a rounded
client and employer brand without seeking to become a me-too member of an enlarged
Big Five.”
