Staff and Directors at one of Bradford’s leading independent accountancy firms are celebrating being listed in the Best Companies directory.

The firm has recently received a “Very Good” employer accreditation from Best Companies, recognising its commitment to creating a positive and engaging workplace environment, and reflecting the firm’s dedication to fostering a supportive and productive culture for its team.

The rating from Best Companies is a mark of excellence, acknowledging companies that go above and beyond to ensure their employees feel valued, motivated, and empowered.

Best Companies was particularly impressed by the firm’s culture and staff social interaction, as well as its fundraising committee, that helped drive internal activities giving staff a sense of belonging.

The organisation was equally impressed with the development and training opportunities at the firm, which have led to 100 per cent of its current Directors and 75 per cent of its current Managers being promoted through the ranks.

With a long-standing reputation for quality service and community support, Watson Buckle’s achievement demonstrates its commitment to its staff and clients alike.
