CDL recognised as Top Employer for 8th year running

Stockport insurance technology firm CDL has been hailed one of the best places to work in the UK.

It’s the eighth consecutive year that the company has retained the prestigious Top Employers certification, which recognises approaches to acquiring new talent to opportunities for development and progression, as well as strong values and a commitment to employee welfare and social responsibility.

CDL recently reaffirmed its status as one of the UK’s leading insurance technology service providers by taking the top spot in BusinessCloud’s InsurTech 50 ranking.

It also saw high-profile deployments of its Strata retail platform and Insurer Hosted Pricing solutions, for both innovative start-ups and household-name brands, including AA Insurance, Sabre Insurance and the Green Insurer, incentivises more environmentally friendly driving behaviours and is the first UK insurer to offset all carbon emissions.

It continues to offer a range of wellbeing schemes for colleagues, including a subsidised restaurant at its technology campus, social events and fundraising and volunteering opportunities, including supporting its charity Wood Street Mission, which helps disadvantaged children and families in Manchester.

CDL chief people officer, Frank Robinson, said: “The award is recognition of how our culture and people practices create an environment where people feel engaged and proud to contribute to the development of truly ground-breaking advancements in our market.”
