IRIS Certified Great Place to Work™ In Tech For The Fifth Year In A Row
London, UK, 25 September 2025: IRIS Software Group (IRIS) has been named as one of the UK’s Best Workplaces in Tech for the fifth year running by Great Place to Work™, the UK’s leading authority on workplace culture.
Earning its spot in the Super Large (1,000+ employees) category, IRIS has been recognised for its commitment to fostering an innovative, collaborative workplace culture, and championing a diverse and inclusive workforce within the technology sector.
The certification is based on an annual, anonymous employee survey, where colleagues share their feedback and experiences around teamwork, leadership, inclusion, and growth opportunities available to them. IRIS proudly offers a variety of initiatives to employees, including Affinity Groups to support its diverse communities, its comprehensive range of learning and development opportunities such as workshops, leadership training, and apprenticeship pathways, and its commitment to making a meaningful impact within local communities through charity initiatives and sustainability policies.
Stephanie Kelly, Chief People Officer for IRIS, said: “This recognition truly belongs to our incredible teams who bring excitement and energy to game-changing work every single day. Together, we’ve built highly disciplined, focused, and effective teams who prove time and again that there’s no problem or challenge we can’t solve – with the right focus and the right support for each other. I’m constantly inspired by our commitment to teamwork and collaboration, and how we always keep our customers at the heart of what we do. While our diverse and inclusive culture is part of this achievement, what really drives us is this collective energy, our shared passion, and our ability to deliver exceptional results at pace. This award is a testament to each and every person who makes IRIS such an extraordinary place to work.”
