Woolcool recognised by The Times: Best Places to Work 2025

Woolcool has been recognised as one of the UK’s Best Places to Work in The Sunday Times, in partnership with the employee experience platform, WorkL.

Woolcool is on a mission to go beyond packaging, using natural materials to change the world. This starts by ensuring the business is a force for good. As the first packaging company of its kind to become a BCorp, Woolcool believes it doesn’t matter what you are making, you make sure you are looking after the planet and its people.

Woolcool is trailblazing in this sector. Whether it’s the firm’s commitment to sustainability, dedication to innovation, or the culture nurtured, this achievement celebrates the incredible team that makes Woolcool such a rewarding, inspiring and supportive place to work.

At Woolcool, the team is at the heart of everything it does. Woolcool believes progress looks different for everyone, which is why it is committed to supporting personal development in all its forms. From professional training like NVQs, Health & Safety, FLT, and degrees to courses that build social and environmental awareness – including EDI, Mental Health, Carbon Literacy and more. Woolcool offers opportunities for every team member to grow in the direction that’s right for them.

Amongst these benefits, Woolcool also offers a cycle to work scheme, flexible working, birthday holidays and extra holidays scheme, team days, the Woolcool team rewards scheme and more.

The nationwide workplace survey, powered by WorkL, honours outstanding employers across a range of industries and shines a spotlight on organisations that are setting the standard for employee experience, wellbeing and inclusion.

From supporting women, LGBTQIA+ employees, disabled team members, and people of all ages and backgrounds, to championing mental health and empowerment at work. Woolcool has kept pace with the generational shift in the workplace, understanding it is the people who make the business, not what they wear.

Josie, managing director, Woolcool, said: “We are proof that diversity brings strength, creativity and success. It is an honour to be included in this prestigious list, but not as Woolcool the entity but for our incredible people, they are the ones who make Woolcool the Best Place to Work! This award reflects the values we live by every day.”
