BGL announces Great Place to Work recertification.

BGL Corporate Solutions, Australia’s leading provider of company compliance, self-managed superannuation fund (SMSF) and investment portfolio management software, is proud to announce it has achieved Great Place to Work recertification for the 2022-2023 year.

“This is a great accomplishment by the BGL Team and especially our People and Culture Team,” said Ron Lesh, BGL’s Managing Director. “This certification means a lot to BGL and recognises the constant and consistent effort of our People and Culture Team to provide BGL’s 200+ employees with a safe, inclusive, and friendly work environment. I’m extremely proud of them.”

Great Place To Work Certification recognises employers who create an outstanding employee experience. Certification is a two-step process that requires the submission of a comprehensive culture brief, capturing the people practices that make a company brilliant and unique. Plus, an employee experience survey, with questions relating to organisational culture and company leadership.

“BGL can only achieve great goals with inspired and passionate people who are motivated to produce outstanding results for our clients,” continued Lesh. “So, we work hard to create and foster a workplace culture where everyone is valued and respected.”

Daniel Tramontana, Chief Executive Officer at BGL, said, “Software is at the core of what we do. It’s the reason thousands of firms choose to transact with us. But clients stay with BGL because of our people, community and culture. Our people are our greatest point of differentiation, and we are truly blessed with the best.”

In recent years, BGL has become an accredited Mental Health First Aid Skilled Workplace and Great Place to Work® Certified™. BGL is recognised on the Great Place To Work® Best Workplaces for Women List and the 2021 AFR BOSS Best Places to Work List as the 6th best technology workplace in Australia and New Zealand. With the help of Joel Clapham, Founder and Chief Mental Health Champ at Hearten Up, BGL has also supported 36 staff to become accredited Mental Health First Aiders.
