MaxContact, the Manchester-based customer engagement software provider, has been named one of the UK's most thriving companies to work for in the 2026 Culture 100 Awards, earning national recognition for its people-first culture.
The accolade places MaxContact among an elite group of 100 UK-based companies recognised for creating a workplace where employees can thrive and perform at their best.
Run by Maya, the Culture 100 awards are among the UK’s most rigorous workplace culture assessments. The programme celebrates organisations that set the standard for what a meaningful place to work looks like, recognising companies that demonstrate an exceptional commitment to employee wellbeing, engagement and development.
For the 2026 awards, more than 5,000 companies across 22 sectors were evaluated, with insights gathered from 20,000 employees to identify the UK's top 100 thriving workplaces.
MaxContact employs around 70 people and has grown steadily as demand for its cloud-based contact centre and engagement technology has increased. The recognition reflects MaxContact’s commitment to building an organisation that views its people as a genuine competitive advantage.
Speaking of the award win, Hannah Holes, Head of People at MaxContact says, “Being recognised as a Culture 100 company means a great deal to us, because it's based on what our people actually think. We've been working hard to build an environment where expectations are high, accountability is clear, and people feel genuinely supported. This recognition tells us we're creating the kind of workplace experience we set out to build.”
Hannah’s words were echoed by MaxContact CEO Ben Booth, who says, “Building a high-performing culture isn't a side project for us. It's central to how we run the business. We believe that getting our people strategy right is what enables us to serve our customers well and grow sustainably. Being listed as one of the UK's most thriving companies to work for is something the whole team should be proud of.
