"HubGem was built with a vision of creating an environment where our employees could thrive, doing what they truly love. Our employee  wellbeing and company culture is  therefore everything to us and building an environment where our team can grow both personally and professionally is paramount. We recognise that wellbeing isn’t one project alone, but an ongoing investment and commitment to our employees in every decision we make, and the daily practices in which we operate. We believe that a healthy work-life balance and wellbeing should be available to everybody, and not sacrificed in order to have a successful professional career – we truly believe they can go hand-in-hand! We have created an environment where everybody has an equal voice in decision-making regardless of their role, where people celebrate one another and where our values are aligned to the bigger picture!" - Kayleigh Lowe, HR & Culture Manager.

Nate Harwood, Founder of New Possible and British HR Awards judge said: "With a 40% increase in the number of entries this year, judging was both a great privilege and a real challenge. Congratulations to all the Finalists who have demonstrated the passion, commitment, and talent at the beating heart of British HR."
