Motorpoint has been named one of the top 100 best mid-sized companies to work for in 2015.

The Widnes-based car supermarket was awarded the prestigious honour for the first time ever by the Sunday Times at a special awards evening hosted at the Battersea Evolution in London.

Motorpoint was ranked 92nd overall in the list of top 100 best mid-sized companies to work for.

Every year hundreds of companies from a wide range of industries measure the level of engagement among employees through a survey in a variety of areas such as leadership, personal growth and wellbeing.

The responses from these surveys are collated and combined and only those businesses with the highest level of overall employee engagement qualify for the top 100.

Kevin Cartwright, general manager of Motorpoint Widnes, said: “We are absolutely thrilled to have made it into the top 100 best mid-sized companies to work for at the first time of asking.

“It is a huge honour made all that more special by the fact that it is based on feedback from each and every member of the team.

“Our staff are integral to everything we do at Motorpoint and it is wonderful to be recognised for our achievements together in this way.”
