The eighth GamesIndustry.biz Best Places To Work Awards for the UK took place today at the Royal Institution in London, as part of our HR Summit.
The event crowned 26 game companies for their excellence in supporting their staff, based on a two survey system, one for the employer to fill in (worth 20% of the score) and the other for employees (80% of the score).
The winners are divided into three categories – large, mid-sized, and small companies – and you can find the list below. Congratulations to all the winning firms!
Alongside these Best Places badges, we revealed the winners of six special awards designed to highlight excellent work from companies in specific areas such as combating climate change, supporting charities, ensuring a healthy workforce, encouraging diversity, and working with educators.
We also have an award to highlight the UK games industry's HR Hero, which replaces our previous 'Best Boss' award – it went to Green Man Gaming's human resources director and data protection officer Ilona Popczyk.
The event also hosted the G Into Gaming Award once again, which is handed to someone who has been championing women in the industry – this year it was won by Harinder Sangha of Maverick Games.
The UK Best Places To Work project is sponsored by Amiqus, Games London, Lighthouse Games, and Playground Games. You can read more details about how the awards are judged here.
