For the first time in their 17-year history, food procurement experts allmanhall underwent an assessment by Investors in People (IIP). They concluded that allmahall are meeting the very high standards needed to be awarded with the prestigious ‘We invest in People, Gold Accreditation’.
allmanhall have always put people first – their team, their clients and suppliers, strong relationships and outstanding support. This Investors in People Gold Accreditation is testament to the culture and care that have been born out of this ethos and of the sincerity of allmanhall’s strong core values.
Only 26% of organisations achieve Investors in People Gold and a great deal fewer achieve it in their very first assessment. It means that every single person in the team is involved in supporting each other and is doing their utmost to make work better, choosing to bring the best version of themselves to work each day.
As Jo Hall, communications and development director and a co-owner of allmanhall, puts it:
“This achievement belongs to every single one of our team. We are a family company and we genuinely care – it is so humbling to see this recognised by a global accreditation like Investors in People and to join the small number of organisations to have met the requirements for Gold standard… and to do it on our first time of being assessed, no less!
Our mission as an employer is to invest in our team’s well-being and development, so they could go and shine anywhere, but choose to be a positive part of allmanhall. Our team is growing by the day, and we are so lucky to get to work with such people.”
The Gold accreditation recognises allmanhall’s commitment to encouraging and empowering everyone at allmanhall to make a positive difference, whilst also demonstrating the caring, supportive and trusting environment that has never wavered as this family-founded, owned and managed business has grown and evolved over the last 17 years.
With recommendations taken on board, allmanhall now have an action plan with the goal of achieving the Platinum Accreditation by 2027. Aspirational, inclusive, passionately focussed on inspiring improvement… but then that has always been the allmanhall way!
