Why SCS Group has been recognised as a Great Place to Work® three years running

Three consecutive years recognised as a Great Place to Work®

How three consecutive years of Great Place to Work® certification reflects SCS Group’s commitment to its people and delivers better outcomes for clients across Australia and New Zealand.

SCS Group has been recognised as a Great Place to Work® Certified organisation for three consecutive years, reflecting our ongoing commitment to creating a workplace where people feel valued, supported and empowered to succeed.

In an industry where attracting and retaining great people is essential to delivering consistent service, earning Great Place to Work® certification for three consecutive years is recognition that we’re building the kind of workplace where people choose to stay and grow.

Unlike many workplace awards, Great Place to Work® certification is based entirely on confidential employee feedback. It measures trust, respect, fairness, pride and workplace culture, making it one of the most credible indicators of employee experience.

For SCS Group, this recognition reflects years of investment in creating an environment where people feel supported, valued and empowered to succeed.

While we’re proud of the certification itself, what matters most is what it represents. Engaged people build stronger teams, stronger teams deliver more consistent service, and that creates better outcomes for our clients every day.

It also gives our clients confidence that the people representing SCS Group are engaged, experienced and committed to delivering consistently high standards.

Commercial cleaning is ultimately a people business. Every cleaner, supervisor, site manager and operations leader contributes directly to the experience our clients receive. Investing in our people has always been one of the most important investments we make because they’re the people who represent our business every day.

What Great Place to Work® certification means

Great Place to Work® certification is based entirely on confidential employee feedback rather than external judging panels.

Unlike many industry recognitions, it measures trust, respect, fairness, pride and workplace culture through confidential employee feedback, providing an independent assessment of the employee experience.

For us, it validates years of investment in creating an environment where people feel valued, supported and empowered to succeed.

More importantly, it reinforces the culture that helps us deliver exceptional service to clients every day.

Three consecutive years recognised as a Great Place to Work® Certified organisation – recognition based on independent employee feedback and our commitment to creating a workplace where people thrive

Listening to our people

The most meaningful measure of workplace culture comes from the people who experience it every day.

Employee feedback consistently highlights a workplace where people feel supported, respected and genuinely connected.

“We aren’t just a number. Everyone is cared for on such a personal level.”

“Leadership is approachable and open to feedback.”

“It’s a workplace where you’re trusted to do your job, supported and encouraged to improve.”

By listening to our people and acting on their feedback, we continue building a stronger organisation for both employees and clients.

Why workplace culture matters to clients

Clients don’t simply choose a commercial cleaning company. They choose the people who will represent that business every day.

When employees feel engaged, supported and valued, they’re more likely to stay with the business, build stronger client relationships and take pride in the service they deliver.

Across the commercial cleaning industry, high employee turnover can impact consistency, communication and site knowledge. Businesses that invest in retaining and developing their people create greater continuity for their clients through familiar faces, stronger accountability and a deeper understanding of each site.

That means:

  • Familiar faces on site
  • Better understanding of your facilities
  • Faster issue resolution
  • Greater accountability
  • Stronger working relationships
  • More consistent service delivery

For organisations looking for a long-term cleaning partner, these outcomes can be just as valuable as experience or technology.

Creating a workplace where people thrive

Our culture is supported through a range of initiatives that help employees grow both personally and professionally. These include career development opportunities, flexible working arrangements, wellbeing initiatives, recognition programs, milestone leave and clear pathways for internal progression.

These initiatives aren’t simply employee benefits. They’re long-term investments in building an engaged workforce that’s committed to delivering exceptional service for our clients.

Building stronger communities together

Creating a positive workplace extends beyond our own organisation.

We’re equally committed to making a meaningful contribution to the communities where we live and work.

Whether supporting charitable organisations, volunteering our time or participating in community initiatives, our people regularly come together to make a positive impact beyond the workplace.

It’s another reflection of the values that underpin SCS Group and the culture we’re proud to build every day.

Diversity strengthens our business

Our people come from diverse backgrounds, experiences and cultures, and we believe that diversity makes us stronger.

Through our SCS Together Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Strategy, we’re creating a workplace where everyone feels respected, valued and empowered to succeed.

Inclusive workplaces foster stronger collaboration, better decision-making and better outcomes for both our people and our clients.

Better workplaces deliver better client outcomes

Exceptional commercial cleaning isn’t just about systems, equipment or technology.

It’s about people who genuinely care.

When employees feel engaged and supported, they’re more likely to:

  • Stay with the business longer
  • Build stronger client relationships
  • Understand site-specific requirements
  • Take pride in their work
  • Identify opportunities for improvement
  • Deliver consistently high standards

For our clients, that means greater continuity, stronger accountability and confidence that their workplace is in capable hands.

Our people regularly volunteer and support community initiatives, reflecting the teamwork and shared purpose that define SCS Group’s culture.

Looking ahead

Being recognised as a Great Place to Work® Certified organisation for three consecutive years is an achievement we’re proud to celebrate.

More importantly, it reflects the culture we’ve built together and our ongoing commitment to creating a workplace where people can thrive.

For our employees, that means feeling supported, respected and empowered to succeed. For our clients, it means confidence that the people representing SCS Group are engaged, experienced and committed to delivering consistently high standards.

As SCS Group continues to grow across Australia and New Zealand, we’ll continue investing in the people who make that growth possible.

Because exceptional commercial cleaning doesn’t begin with equipment or technology.

It begins with people who feel valued, supported and empowered to do their best work.
