Chess makes move onto Sunday Times list

VARs bags 66th spot on newspaper's list of best companies to work for

Acquisitive VAR Chess Telecom has been named by The Sunday Times as one of the UK's top 100 companies to work for.

The Cheshire-based firm bagged the 66th spot on The Sunday Times' annual rundown of the UK's best places to work after providing evidence of its staff incentives and development programmes.

The company cites its more unusual staff benefits, which include massages, flu jabs and company outings, for its inclusion in this year's list.

Other channel firms to make it onto the list include Northampton-based VAR ACS (52), The Phoenix Partnership (69) and UKFast (74).

David Pollock, chief executive of Chess, said: "The passion and support of our people helps to create not just a great place to work but also a great company to be a customer of."

Andrew Green, head of performance at Chess, added: "To be recognised as one of the Sunday Times top 100 companies demonstrates the commitment of our people to exceeding our customers' expectations."
