BHP has become a Great Place to Work Certified Organisation.

The firm was assessed following an independent survey carried out by the global authority on workplace culture, Great Place to Work.

The survey gathered details from employees on a wide range of criteria, including inclusivity, flexibility and career progression. The firm scored 86 per cent on the Great Place to Work criteria – well above the 65 per cent threshold to achieve certification.

Measurables such as treating staff fairly regardless of race, gender or sexual orientation and feeling welcome when joining the company achieved over 95 per cent agreement from employees.

When asked to provide feedback on what makes BHP a great workplace, employees praised the firm’s flexible working opportunities, open door policy adopted by senior management and attitude towards career progression.

Employee feedback from the 2025 survey:

• “Great place to be training as I feel supported. I am given enough time off to study, and the quality of training is high.”
• “There is a caring environment, while providing opportunities to develop in a professional manner. The work done differs; however, members of the team are continuously supporting each other without getting lost in being a ‘corporate number’ on a spreadsheet that tells you how much the returns are. “
• “Unique culture – Strong, open, honest and transparent leadership from the top. Collaborative working – Teams across service lines are always willing to help each other.”
• “There is a positivity about the place – an open culture, ability to speak to those in charge, and I’m trusted to do what I need to do to be a success.”
• “Very focused on mental wellbeing and encouraging a healthy work/life balance.”
• “The training and development opportunities are fantastic and the benefits provided by the company, such as salary sacrifice car scheme, rewards and incentives such as the Christmas voucher and ‘above and beyond award’, really make a difference to just doing the job. The people are lovely, and the support you get from colleagues is excellent.”
• “BHP/ Translink is a very warm place to work. I always feel welcomed into every office I go to. I feel as though my opinion and thoughts matter, and that management is striving for my progression as much as I am.”
• “This is the only place I have worked where I feel management/senior leaders actually care, and demonstrate with their actions, not just words.”
• “There is always someone to talk to, no matter what your level, and you will be given the help and support needed.”
• “The care for the staff, e.g., offering the free counselling sessions, which is really exceptional.  Also, recent ESG initiatives make me proud of the firm and its culture.”

The British Accountancy Awards are truly representative of end user and end business achievements across the entire ecosystem and highlights and rewards the hard work that mobilises continued growth within the sector. BHP were delighted to have been shortlisted for Audit Team of the Year and Tax Team of the Year. Winners of the Audit Team of the Year.

The Sunday Times Top 100 ranks Britain’s best companies to work for based on several criteria around staff satisfaction. A robust workforce survey includes 70 statements about staff wellbeing, pay and benefits, personal growth, their team, and company leadership.

This results in each company receiving a Best Companies Index (BCI) score, and potential accreditation ranging from ‘Ones to Watch’ right through to ‘3 Star’ status. BHP are delighted to have been featured in the survey for two years running, achieving ‘2 star’ accreditation status for 2020.

The Yorkshire Accountancy Awards represent accountancy firms of all sizes, working with both local and international clients, and recognise both team and individual efforts within the Yorkshire industry. In 2019, BHP were delighted to have been shortlisted for Mid Tier Firm of the Year, Employer of the Year, Rising Star and Managing Partner of the year. Winners of the Mid Tier Firm of the Year and Employer of the Year.
