Grainger Motor Group Earns 2026-27 Great Place To Work Certificate

Grainger Motor Group is proud to be Certified™ by Great Place To Work® for the 2nd year in a row. The prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at GMG. This year, 87% of employees said it’s a great place To Work compared to 54% of employees at a typical UK based company.

Great Place To Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and the leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation.

"Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience," says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, the Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work. She emphasizes that Certification is the sole official recognition earned by the real-time feedback of employees regarding their company culture. “By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that Grainger Motor Group stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees."

“Being recognised as a Great Place to Work for a second consecutive year is something we can be genuinely proud of. For us, the most encouraging part is what it represents about the direction we’re heading as a business.

Over the past three years, we’ve built a dealer group with 20 locations and more than 550 employees, we represent some of the best brands in the UK and have won numerous industry accolades – but we still feel like we’re just getting started. We’re committed to creating an environment where great people can build their careers, develop their potential and enjoy being part of what we’re achieving together.

There’s always more we can do, but this recognition reinforces that we’re on the right track”— Harry and Neal Grainger, Managing Directors
