Bentley receives UK Top Employer award for third consecutive year

Bentley Motors has been named as one of Britain's Top Employers for the third year running by the Top Employers Institute. Bentley's dedication to the personal development, working environment and employee culture of the 3,700 colleagues who work
at the Crewe headquarters was particularly praised.

"We are proud that our efforts to cultivate a talented, diverse and engaged workforce have been recognised. It's not only a testament to our dedication to personal and professional development, but also to our skilled and committed colleagues," said Dr. Ariane Reinhart, Member of the Board for Human Resources.

Bentley's nationally recognised apprenticeship programme, which develops new talent within the business, was a strong contributing factor in the Top Employers' assessment of employee development opportunities. 62 apprentices are currently employed at Bentley, working in a variety of areas including Engineering, Marketing, Communications, Manufacturing and Human Resources, all of which combine on the job training with academic qualifications.

Bentley's annual Apprentice Open Day will be held on March 22, 2014 at its headquarters in Crewe, where attendees are invited to speak to current Apprentices and learn more about the scheme and its benefits.

Opportunities to develop are not limited to new recruits. A key focus within Bentley is growing the talent that exists in current employees and maximising potential through development opportunities and clear career pathways. This has led to the business already being accredited as an Investor in People to silver standard.
