To be in the 25 best organisations of any sort to work for in Scotland is the icing on the cake! We’ve been on our culture change journey for a few years now and I’m delighted by the progress we’ve made. That progress has been down to lots of hard work and by everyone across the Group embracing our values and working towards being the organisation we aspire to be."
