Recognised amongst 100 organisations on the 2024 UK’s Best Workplaces in Tech List in the small- and medium-sized category, KnowBe4 has been acknowledged as supporting work-life balance amongst its employees, providing a sense of fulfilment, job satisfaction, psychological safety, and financial security. 

"We are pleased to be recognised as one of the UK's Best Workplaces in Tech,” says Ani Banerjee, chief human resources officer at KnowBe4. “We believe that our people are our greatest asset, and we strive to create an environment where they can thrive both professionally and personally. At KnowBe4, we are proud of the collaborative and supportive atmosphere our team has built, and we will continue to invest in our employees' growth, well-being, and job satisfaction as we move forward."

Great Place To Work UK administered their research-backed Trust Index employee survey and analysed the responses of UK-based tech employees to determine the Best Workplaces list. The surveys asked employees to comment on how their company supports their work-life balance, sense of fulfilment, job satisfaction, psychological safety and financial security. Evaluations also included an assessment of how well the organisation was able to deliver consistency of their employee experience across all departments and seniority levels.

According to Great Place to Work UK, analysis of the sector employee survey responses found:

  • 93% of employees at the UK’s Best Workplaces for Tech say “I’m proud to tell others I work here” compared to a UK average for sector of 69%
  • 87% of employees at the UK’s Best Workplaces for Tech say “I want to work here for a long time” compared to a UK average for sector of 67%

“Now in its seventh year, the Best Workplaces in Tech list celebrates companies adept at developing dynamic, collaborative cultures that serve as a catalyst for innovation and personal growth for all,” says Benedict Gautrey, managing director of Great Place to Work UK. “In one of the country’s fastest-growing industries, it’s fantastic to see these Tech organisations placing their people strategy at the top of the agenda and implementing employee experience programmes that create a positive culture for all. A huge congratulations to KnowBe4 for making this prestigious list.”
