BM Caterers achieves one-star Best Companies accreditation
Abstract
BM Caterers has received a one-star rating by Best Companies, its tenth successive year of being accredited (excluding the pandemic years).

Team members were asked to respond to statements about their wellbeing, pay and benefits, personal growth, and the leadership. Companies can achieve up to three stars in total.

Benefits of working at BM include free critical illness/personal insurance, an Employee Assistance Programme, free private healthcare and free life insurance. A survey found:

  • More than 80% of team members agreed BM was run on strong values and principles
  • 83% also agreed that their work was an important part of their life
  • 78% of team members said their team was fun to work with

Murray Soper, head of people & talent at BM, said: “We’re committed to our team’s happiness and development and this gives us an accurate benchmark against which to compare our engagement levels year-on-year, and how we compare to others.

“Looking ahead, we have committed to a review of our family friendly benefits to lift them further and engaged a consultant who will work with us to review all our people policies and practices to drive equity in the attraction, retention and internal advancement of our people.

“We have also reengaged Investors in People in a two-staged approach where regular and full diagnostic assessments of people-related activity will steer us in our quest to make things even better for everyone who works in the BM family.”
