In a really quite remarkable week, we were named one of the best agencies to work for … a great accolade for a lovely team of people

We were more than a little proud to hear this week that we’ve won a Gold Award inย PR Week’s Best Places to Work following a rigorous judging process.

In the process, being declared the best mid-sized agency to work for in the UK.

Apparently there were over 100 agencies in the running so we’re well and truly chuffed that we were even on a shortlist.

Here’s what PR Week had to say about us in our little write up (read about all the winnersย here) …

In an equally tough group, Hope&Glory, the consumer agency formed just four years ago, pipped its rivals to the post, with judges commending its approach to staff wellbeing.

Hope&Gloryโ€™s training programme Rise&Shine was recognised for its thoroughness, encompassing a graduate training scheme and a monthly โ€˜lunch and learnโ€™ session, along with external training courses. Every employee has undergone media training in the past year, and the agency has even put all staff โ€“ from intern to partner โ€“ on a personal impact training course from RADA (the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art).

Also offered is management coaching for senior staff (associate director and above), a proofreading course for junior employees, and team management training for senior account managers. Employees receive six to eight hours of training each month.

The bonuses on offer are generous โ€“ 30 per cent of total profits are paid out in staff bonuses, a figure equivalent to 15 per cent of the total salary pool. Interns, meanwhile, are paid the London Living Wage at Hope&Glory, and the agency sees the scheme as a useful recruitment tool โ€“ an impressive 70 per cent end up working for the company.

Hope&Glory offers full pay to mothers for the first 12 weeks, with half pay offered up to week 18. A flexible approach is employed for returning parents, with the agency making it clear that working hours can be changed to accommodate their new responsibilities.

Across its entire four-year history only five full-time employees have left Hope&Gloryโ€™s currently 47-strong team โ€“ a telling statistic that points to a winning approach.

We went along to the EMEA Sabre Awards 2025 with high hopes and low expectations (and only our expectations were confounded)

Our mantra has always been "you win some, you lose some". This time we won a lot and we could not be more delighted ...
