Awards AFC Summer Awards: Recognising great asset and auto finance employers Published: 19th March 2024 Share The 2024 AFC Best Organisation to Work for Award is designed to recognise the best asset, auto or equipment finance organisation to work for in the industry. Many companies pride themselves on their culture, values or for being an overall great company to work for. However, these claims are often unsubstantiated, which is why the Best Organisation to Work for Award at the AFC Summer Awards is always so hotly contested. So, don’t delay, submit your entry today before the 12th April closing date or nominate one of the outstanding organisations that you work with. Last year the AFC Best Organisation to Work for (Lender) Award 2023 was awarded to Simply Asset Finance. On winning the highly sought-after award, Mike Randall, CEO at Simply commented, “Simply has been recognised in its short time for attributes that mean a lot to us, such as our technology, innovation and leadership. However, winning an award for best organisation to work for feels very special, and the fact that our own team took the time to nominate and vote for us is particularly humbling. “Our people mean so much to us and they are huge part of what makes Simply a great place to work, living by our values every day and upholding the culture that is so important to us.” Amongst its employees, it was unanimously felt that “Simply is a great place to grow, succeed and celebrate what we are able to do for SMEs.” Unlike other AFC awards, this category is not judged by a panel of industry experts and is instead judged anonymously by the company’s own employees. Meaning the accolade of “best company to work for” really is a true endorsement of how employees feel. Those making the shortlist truly deserve to be there and have been backed by their own personnel, showcasing to the industry how much their employees appreciate them. This category provides the opportunity for companies to showcase to the industry just how valued their staff feel and the special environment that they are creating. As many companies fight to attract new talent to their organisation, accolades such as this really do play a vital role in substantiating why someone should be looking to join your company. To see a full list of the categories and start your nomination entry, visit the AFC Summer Awards 2024 website. Closing date for entries is 12th April. The AFC Summer Awards 2024 will be held on Tuesday 9th July at City Central within the grounds of the Honourable Artillery Company, London. Book your table for this year’s must-attend event here.
