Here at Vines Group we are incredibly proud of our inclusive, “family-feel” culture and that’s only made possible by the continuous feedback from our employees. Feedback is valued from all avenues and at all levels to ensure we make Vines the best place to work for our motivated and passionate people. We believe its important our staff can bring their whole selves to work and if we look after our people they will look after our customers, this is what drives our success year on year.

Employee feedback is gathered via various methods and our employee survey conducted through Peakon is a great measure of our group’s engagement. Some of the highlights of our October 2022 survey is a whopping 93% participation rate and an overall score of 8.9 out of 10.0 putting us in the top 5% of businesses within a similar grouping and category, measured by Peakon.
