Newsweek names Zaizi as one of UK’s Most Loved Workplaces
US media giant Newsweek has recognised Zaizi as one of the Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces® in the UK for 2023.
We’re ranked 49 on this prestigious list based on extensive research by Newsweek and the Best Practice Institute.
Newsweek is a global digital news outlet built on the iconic 85-year-old print magazine. The Best Practice Institute is a leadership development and research company.
The list recognises companies that create a workplace where employees feel respected, inspired, appreciated and are at the centre of the business model.
Over 2 million employees from companies of all sizes were surveyed, making this a hugely competitive process.
“Being ranked in the UK top 100 Most Loved Workplaces is a testament to the incredible people and the passion that defines Zaizi.”
“This achievement is a reminder that when we come together with a shared purpose, doing meaningful work that has a positive impact on society we can create a workplace that truly stands out and is appreciated by all.”
Tracey Robinson, Zaizi’s Chief People Officer.

Identifying the Top 100 Most Loved Workplace
To identify the top 100, organisations scored on the following:
- 35% based on employee survey responses
- 25% based on public rating sites like Glassdoor, Indeed and Google;
- 40% from interviews and written responses from the companies
- Newsweek also conducted additional research into every company on the list.
The analysis examined how well companies demonstrate BPI’s Spark Model. Other factors included employee:
- sentiments and emotions indicating engagement
- positivity about their workplace
- commitment to organisational success
“With the rapidly changing workplace and competition for top talent, more companies are recognising the importance of employee engagement and commitment”, said Nancy Cooper, Global Editor in Chief, Newsweek.
“The workplaces that have demonstrated a commitment to their employees in 2023 are more likely to attract the best talent and deliver strong business outcomes.”

“The companies on this list have committed to listening carefully to their employees to create a workplace employees love.”
