HubGem Named as one of World's Happiest Workplaces 2025

We believe that a happy, engaged team is the key to success. So, it’s with immense pride and excitement that we share the incredible news: HubGem has been named one of the World’s Happiest Workplaces for 2025 and in the Top 10 Happiest Workplaces in Marketing and Advertising in the UK by WorkL!

This recognition is not only a reflection of the hard work and dedication of our team but also a testament to the culture we’ve built here.

The Importance of a Happy Workplace

This award from WorkL speaks volumes about the value of creating a positive and supportive work environment. In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy for companies to overlook employee happiness in favour of deadlines and bottom lines. However, research consistently shows that happy employees are more productive, more loyal, and more likely to collaborate and innovate. This is why it’s so important for employers to commit to creating a happy workplace where every team member feels valued, supported, and fulfilled.

I firmly believe that a happy workplace is not just about providing perks or offering a fun office environment (although those things certainly help!). It’s about fostering an inclusive culture where individuals feel seen and heard, and where their contributions are recognised and appreciated.

At HubGem, we place a high priority on Reward and Recognition, Empowerment, and Wellbeing – all vital components of WorkL’s Six Steps to Workplace Happiness. These steps are integral to the overall happiness and engagement of our team, and we are thrilled to see our efforts rewarded.

About the Award

For those unfamiliar with WorkL, the organisation was founded in 2017 by Lord Price, and it’s become a leading global platform dedicated to improving workplace happiness. Over 1.5 million people across the world have taken their WorkL Happy at Work Survey, which helps individuals assess their job satisfaction and well-being.

The survey, developed with input from behavioural scientists, psychologists, and business leaders, is based on Lord Price’s Six Steps to Workplace Happiness:

😀 Reward & Recognition
😀 Instilling Pride
😀 Information Sharing
😀 Empowerment
😀 Wellbeing
😀 Job Satisfaction

In order to be named one of the happiest workplaces globally, a company must perform well across all of these six steps, achieving a high engagement score. For a small company like HubGem to be recognised in this way, it means we are not only meeting but exceeding expectations when it comes to ensuring our employees are happy, engaged, and fulfilled. We have achieved this by placing a strong emphasis on open communication, offering opportunities for growth, and prioritising the well-being of our team.
