We are delighted to share that Nous has again been named as one of the UK’s Best Workplaces™ in the Medium category, by Great Place to Work®.  

Great Place to Work® is the global authority on workplace culture and recognises organisations that create an outstanding employee experience. Great Place to Work® Certification™ is based on the results of a Trust Index survey, which asked our UK-based team members to provide anonymous and candid feedback on what it is like to work at Nous, specifically across five key dimensions: credibility, respect, fairness, pride and camaraderie. 

We had an 86 per cent response rate to the survey and when asked whether Nous is a great place to work, 93 per cent agreed. Our overall score in the survey was well above the certification benchmark, at 89 per cent. 

This recognition acknowledges Nous’s long-standing commitment to building an extraordinary workplace culture, and how that culture translates across our global offices.  

Nous Group Principal and UK Lead Julie Mercer said: “Being recognised again as a Best Workplace reflects our deep commitment to providing a work environment that is fulfilling, inspiring, supportive and safe. The work that we do with clients requires a lot from our people, so we are constantly seeking to provide the structure, support and collegiality that rewards their positive influence with a positive workplace experience."  

Nous has had a presence in the UK for more than a decade, growing in that time to a team of over 40 including colleagues from both Nous Consulting and Nous Data Insights. Some of the standout features of our culture include:  

  • Our shared bonus structure, in which all team members can opt to receive the same percentage of income as a bonus each financial year, meaning that we truly think in terms of collective success.
  • Our global collaboration network, which allows many UK Nousers to work closely with team members from other offices, build deep international relationships and gather valuable cross-geography insights to support their client work.
  • Our many UK-led cultural initiatives, from our support for the 10,000 Interns Foundation, Pride and International Women’s Day, to office-led initiatives like AI mentorship, cooked meals to share during busy periods, and many other activities that foster our unique environment of care and collegiality. 

Mercer said: “I would like to thank everyone who works at Nous in the UK for your contribution to our culture. We all share in this achievement and look forward to continuing to create an environment where our people can excel professionally and thrive personally.”

Best Workplaces are evaluated through Great Place to Work® Trust Index™ survey data which measures the three key relationships that drive an employee's experience in their workplace, relationships with management, colleagues, and their job. The Trust Index score represents the percentage of employees who consider their company to be a great workplace and is an indicator of their actual workplace experience.
