Karbon has officially been named as one of the UK's Best Workplaces for Development™ 2025 by Great Place To Work®.
San Francisco, May 22, 2025 — Karbon has officially been named as one of the UK's Best Workplaces for Development™ 2025 by Great Place To Work®, the global authority on workplace culture.
Karbon ranked 79 in the UK’s Best Workplaces for Development List which recognises companies making employee development a key part of company culture.
The listed workplaces offer employees the chance to better themselves, to learn new skills, and to progress within the organisation. By being included in the List, the companies have demonstrated they understand that development is not one-size fits all, and they actively support every single employee to undertake their own tailored journey of growth. Because of this, their people are fuelled by a sense of purpose, feel valued by their employer, and give their best to the organisation.
Karbon’s inclusion on this exclusive list highlights over a decade of deliberate, people-first practices that fuel development, innovation and employee growth. Over the past 10 years, several policies and benefits have been introduced to solidify the commitment to employee development including mentorship programs and internal mobility pathways.
Every Karbon team member is treated as an owner, sharing responsibility for outcomes. This inclusive, performance-driven approach fosters accountability, collaboration and a strong sense of purpose. It’s a big part of why the team continues to rank in the top percentile of workplace culture metrics in the UK.
“At Karbon, continuous development is not just encouraged, but more importantly, expected, supported, and celebrated,” said Jourdan Pym, VP of People at Karbon. “We’ve intentionally built an environment where growth is owned by every single Karbonite and powered by the business. Whether it’s leadership training or switching focus areas, we aim to create opportunities that support that. Being recognised on this list is a proud moment for all of us. It reflects the dedication and drive of every single Karbonite.”
“Training and development aren’t just about helping employees perform their day-to-day tasks. It’s about demonstrating that people are valued and that there’s a clear path for growth and inclusion. When employees can’t see opportunities ahead, they’re less likely to be fully engaged, which can harm both productivity and retention,” said Benedict Gautrey, Managing Director of Great Place To Work® UK.
Karbon’s culture of development has been earning praise since before 2025. The company was also named one of the UK’s Best Workplaces in Tech™ by Great Place to Work® UK in 2024, further reinforcing its reputation for fostering a high-performing, inclusive and empowering environment for all employees
To compile the UK’s Best Workplaces for Development List, Great Place To Work® reviewed each company’s culture, benefits, approach to leadership and development, alongside anonymous responses from employees. These data insights are then used to benchmark each company's employee value proposition against the culture employees actually experience. Only the businesses who achieve the highest scores after evaluation receive Best Workplaces™ status.
