Ed Phillips, Group Chief Executive of Lomond, commented: “At Lomond, we are proud to have nurtured a workplace culture where employee engagement, recognition, and ongoing professional development sit at the heart of everything we do. Our colleagues are the foundation of our success, and through collaboration and innovation, guided by our values of Wisdom, Integrity, Success and Evolution, we continue to shape the way our business grows."
As a prominent organisation in the property sector, we are conscious of the changing expectations placed on employers to provide more than just a job. We see investment in our people as the key thread running through our success story, and we are dedicated to sustaining an environment in which they can thrive.
Our mission remains to inspire our teams to perform at their very best, and we are delighted to once again be recognised as one of the Best Workplaces in Construction, Engineering, and Property.”
Lomond’s initiatives, programmes and benefits ensure it provides the best employee experience
Lomond continues to act to further improve its employee experience through enhanced benefits provisions as well as leadership development initiatives – including mentoring, a bespoke management development academy and its own graduate scheme, as well as diversity and inclusion programmes that ensure every team member feels valued and empowered. Employee wellbeing is at the heart of Lomond’s offering, with a dedicated benefits platform providing access to a range of lifestyle perks and wellbeing resources to support staff in aspects of life outside of work.
With mergers and acquisitions at the core of Lomond’s business, ensuring its teams are supported and recognised in an enjoyable and inclusive place to work is key to the effective integration of diverse businesses and cultures into one cohesive group.
Lomond also prioritises giving back, undertaking charity fundraising initiatives throughout the UK, supporting youth homelessness nationally as well as local grassroots organisations in the communities where we operate. These activities contribute towards a genuine feeling of empowerment and togetherness across the group.
The Best Workplaces in Construction, Engineering & Property™ list is created using anonymous feedback from employees working in the industry about their workplace experience.
Great Place To Work® UK administered their research-backed Trust Index© employee survey and analysed the responses of UK-based construction, engineering and property sector employees to determine the Best Workplaces™ list. The surveys asked employees to comment on how their company supports their work-life balance, sense of fulfilment, job satisfaction, psychological safety and financial security. Evaluations also included an assessment of how well the organisation was able to deliver consistency of their employee experience across all departments and seniority levels.
