The scheme is run by Best Companies, the organisation behind The Sunday Times’ prestigious “Who to work for” list. Best Companies asked Opus Energy’s employees 70 questions to gain a clear view of how they felt about working at the organisation. The questions focused on eight main factors, these included; the staff members direct manager, leadership, my company, personal growth, my team, fair deal, giving something back, and wellbeing.
Opus Energy’s Managing Director, Charlie Crossley Cooke stated: “We have had a strong result from this year’s Best Companies survey, and have seen staff engagement grow overall. I’d like to congratulate the team of people we have working here at Opus Energy for their important contribution to the growth of the business. I’m happy they feel that their role is acknowledged by what Opus Energy gives back.”
Opus Energy’s Head of HR, Learning and Development, Annamarie Petsis Jones commented: “This year we saw a great improvement in how employees felt about their individual growth at the company. I believe that this is a reflection of the emphasis we place on staff training, to enable our employees to develop in their careers at Opus. That is something we are planning to develop further in 2012 with our forthcoming Management Development Programme and newly launched NVQ Apprenticeship Scheme.”
Giving Something Back was also one of the areas that Opus Energy staff engagement increased in. Opus Energy, Credit Controller, Pankaj Raikundalia, reflects on this: "When I joined Opus and realised that the business was very active in supporting national and local charities I was really happy because supporting charitable causes is something I've always enjoyed doing. There have been several individual initiatives to raise money for a range of charities and I am very proud to have taken part in the activities for these causes with some incredible support from the individuals taking part,Opus Energy's Management and of course the sponsors."

It is encouraging to hear that big brands such as Opus are doing charities and giving something back to the community. I hope more companies will follow Opus example
