The Sunday Times, powered by WorkL, has revealed the businesses that have successfully made it onto the prestigious Best Places to Work list for 2025, and leading South West law firm Stephens Scown yet again features as one of the best in the big organisation category.
The nationwide survey celebrates the best employers across industries of all sectors and sizes. The results are formed from accurately monitoring employee engagement, with Stephens Scown surpassing last year’s ratings in the areas of information sharing, instilling pride, empowerment, reward and recognition, and job satisfaction.
Speaking about the result, Verity Slater, lead partner for the firm’s employee experience strategic pillar, said: “We are delighted to not only have retained our ranking as one of the Sunday Times Best Places to Work, but to have surpassed last year’s scores in almost every area. This is a fantastic achievement and proves that the culture within Stephens Scown is a source of great pride and inspiration for our people. Seeing that recognised by the employees who responded to the employee engagement survey and put us on the list highlights the work we do to ensure colleague wellbeing and happiness continues to have a positive impact.
“Doing notable work for notable clients, building our skills with talented people and having a positive impact on our communities sits at the heart of everything we do. It’s great to see the values and recognition of our culture and ethos reflected nationally, highlighting the great career and personal development opportunities we offer as a leading law firm in the South West.
In addition to its B Corp™ accreditation, Stephens Scown is an employee-owned business which achieved its best financial performance to date for the ’24-‘25 financial year, all while continuing its reputation for providing excellent client service and supporting its people with their career aspirations.
Coming hot on the heels of recent promotions being announced, including four new partners, four new Senior Associates and six new Associates, Stephens Scown’s inclusion in the Sunday Times Best Places to Work list is another feather in the cap of what is sure to be another outstanding year ahead.
