What are the judges looking for?

What the judges are looking for comes down to one thing above all: values.

We believe values are embedded in everything you do - guiding how you operate, how you engage with your customers, and how you treat your people. At their core, your values shape your behaviours - and that’s what truly sets you apart.

  • Being innovative, brave and visionary 

  • Putting customers first - by caring and supporting 

  • Being co-creators through collaboration and teamwork 

  • Pursuing excellence - providing quality services 

  • Acting like owners – with confidence and resilience
