This nationwide survey, which involved interviewing members of staff up and down the country from large corporations to small start-ups, was initiated to find the UK employers that have their employees’ best interests at heart.

GetMyFirstJob, which employs four apprentices, was the only company listed in the Top 100 to specialise in young people’s career development and apprenticeship recruitment.

David Allison, founder and CEO at GetMyFirstJob, said: ‘We are absolutely thrilled.’

GetMyFirstJob has a candidate database of 290,000 young people and works with 150 different training providers and colleges as well as a wide range of UK employers. It has increased in size by 1,000 per cent since inception.

Founded in Chiswick in 2012 with three employees, the service now has a team of 30 employees and has recently moved to Portsmouth.
