We're proud to have been shortlisted for the Best Benefits Strategy Award, part of Reward Gateway's Engagement Excellence Awards 2021.
The winners of the Best Benefits Strategy Award, which received hundreds of applications in total, will be announced on 4th November at the Tate Modern in London. We face strong competition in EG Group, Royal Mail and Great Place to Work UK. Regardless of the outcome, congratulations to our colleague experience team for their hard work and unwavering commitment to making City an amazing place to work. Well done!
Our benefits strategy forms an integral part of our wider business and engagement strategies, and Reward Gateway were particularly impressed with how our benefits strategy is structured around key wellbeing pillars: Mental wellbeing, physical wellbeing and financial wellbeing.
Our OneCity platform provides one place for colleagues to view their tailored benefits. We utilise the platform’s reward, recognition, and communication functionality to provide the best experience for colleagues. Our people are regularly encouraged to provide feedback and we analyse responses and survey data to evaluate what’s working and identify other benefits we could introduce.
“I am delighted that City has been shortlisted for our benefit strategy. Our colleagues are at the heart of everything we do, and we truly are One City. The colleague experience team and the wider people team have worked together to drive our ambition for the business and our colleagues. In line with our values, we continue to strive to improve and make it happen!”
