Great Place to Work has named REA Group as Australia’s fifth Best Workplace for 2023 in the large company category, securing the group’s top five ranking for the third consecutive year.
REA was the highest ranked ASX listed business, and the only Australian listed business in the top 10.
The group was certified as a Great Place to Work in June and secured the official ranking among a number of outstanding global and Australian businesses at an in-person event in Sydney.
REA Group Chief Executive Officer, Owen Wilson said he was incredibly proud of the achievement.
“Our people are the best judges of what it’s really like to work at REA,” he said.
“I’m particularly proud that this recognition reflects their views of our total employee experience, how we create value for our teams and our business, and how we measure up against the best companies in Australia.
“We have created a world class employee experience and our people are at the heart of our business’s success.
“I would like to congratulate every single person at REA for their contribution.
“Our employees are purpose-driven and collaborative, which drives innovation and our ability to make a real impact for our customers and consumers.”
REA Group Chief People and Sustainability Officer, Mary Lemonis added: “Our commitment to investing in leadership capabilities, talent attraction and engagement, and nurturing a diverse and inclusive culture are just a few of the things that make REA stand out from the crowd.
“We place a lot of value in this Great Place to Work recognition as it reflects our strong REA culture and helps us attract high calibre talent to our business.
“Equally, it is the acknowledgement of our commitment to designing and delivering a leading employee experience for our people. This is something our whole team plays a role in and should feel very proud of.”
Earlier in the year, REA Group was recognised as one of Australia’s best workplaces in technology as well as a best workplace for women.
REA India also ranked third amongst the Top 100 best companies to work for in India, an impressive leap from No.21 the previous year.
Great Place to Work is known as the global authority on workplace culture and has been recognising the best places to work in Australia for the past 16 years.
