AVEVA Select Partner for the UK & Ireland SolutionsPT has been recognised by Best Companies for a 12th consecutive year, climbing to number 10 in the best mid-sized companies category, and to the 6th in the best technology company category as part of the Q2 result.
Officially a “World Class company to work for”, SolutionsPT is a leading industrial IT solutions partner, which helps enterprises to successfully harness digital technology to achieve excellence in engineering, operations and asset management through the identification and deployment of a world-class hardware, software and managed services portfolio including exclusive UK & Ireland distribution of AVEVA products and bespoke consultancy, technical support and training capabilities. The company places great emphasis on the people and skills required for digital transformation and exemplifies this with its own staff.
Sue Roche, General Manager of SolutionsPT said, “We’re delighted to continue to earn this recognition and that the hard work over the past year has seen the company rise further in the ranks. We are a people-centric company – both inwardly and outwardly. We believe that digital transformation is a powerful force for good for the future of industry, the people who work in industry, and for humanity. Our vision is for every industrial enterprise to be a part of a better, digitally transformed future.”
The award comes at a time when talent in the industrial sector is at a premium, and Rachel Pregnall, Key Account Manager at SolutionsPT believes that showing a consistent commitment to the development of staff and continuous improvements in the working environment are an important differentiator.
Rachel Pregnall, Key Account Relationships Manager adds, “My job includes managing our approach to the wellness of staff and it is something we take very seriously as a company. When it comes to our customers, we strive to develop long-term partnerships that set a course for continuous improvement, so why would our approach differ with our employees? As the resident Mental Health First Aider, I work closely with every employee to understand their specific needs. We appreciate that everyone’s needs are different so we have to offer support in a variety of ways to support mental wellness – it’s crucial to a fulfilling career. It is not by accident that our staff retention rates are high, nor that so many of the senior team have worked up through the company over a period of many years.”
Rachel is the point of contact for anyone in the company on matters relating to stress, anxiety, or a mental health issue. By having a singular point of contact, employees have access to advice, support, or just simply someone to talk to at any time. Rachel posts and follows the guidelines of ‘Actions for Happiness’ each month, a charitable initiative that offers daily activities for employees to improve their mental health. Through a combination of one-to-ones and company communications, holistic massages are regularly offered to all employees and the resident Employee Action Team frequently schedules enrichment and social activities. All of this culminates in a work environment that supports employees, providing the tools they need to achieve mental wellness.
SolutionsPT will always strive to improve when it comes to employee engagement and remain as an employer of choice for the next generation. For more information on awards and accreditations, visit the website.
