VW and Topaz praised in Best Workplace 2013

Volkswagen Group Ireland has been officially recognised as a Best Workplace 2013, the only automotive company to make this year's list.

This prestigious accolade was presented at the Great Place to Work Awards in the Burlington Hotel Dublin earlier this month.

Commenting on the accolade, Tom Fleming, Human Resources Director of Volkswagen Group Ireland said their success is built around 'great brands, great people, and a great dealer network'. He said "We recognise that great people thrive in a great work environment. We will celebrate this achievement but we also know that being a great place to work is a never ending journey."

Topaz, the country's biggest fuels and convenience retailer, has also been recognised as one of the Best Workplaces in Ireland - for the sixth year in a row. Pictured at the event was Paul Candon, Marketing and Corporate Services Director at Topaz (centre) with Jonathan Diver, Dealer Business Manager, and Judy Wilson, Head of Category Management.

Great Place to Work Ireland is part of a Global network with offices in 48 countries using the same assessment methodology to publish 45 country lists, as well as regional and a Global list.
