Ogilvy Australia has been recognised as an Employer of Choice (EOC) in The Australian Business Awards 2019 for the second consecutive year.

The annual Australian Business Awards applaud organisations that demonstrate the core values of business innovation, product innovation, technological achievement and employee engagement. The EOC award recognises organisations which have developed workplaces that maximise the full potential of their workforce through effective employee recruitment, engagement and retention.

David Fox, chief executive officer of Ogilvy Australia noted, “At Ogilvy we truly believe our people are our most valuable asset and we make sure their wellbeing is at the core of everything we do and say.

“By looking after our people and creating a collaborative, caring and dynamic workplace is a fail-safe way of getting the best work from your team and in turn our clients reap the benefits.

Fifty-two organisations were selected in this year’s Employer of Choice Awards, all organisations that have demonstrated innovative leadership and management practices that engage and support their workforce.

“The awards resonate with our mission of highlighting organisations within Australia that foster a culture of innovation, promoting teamwork and problem-solving,” stated Australian Business Awards Program Director, Ms Tara Johnston.

“Fostering a culture of innovation is essential for every organisation. Organisations that are innovation-focused experience improved business efficiency, staff performance and retention.”

The Employer of Choice Award recipients will participate in the international chapter of the program at the World Business Awards where they can benchmark themselves against the top performers globally.
