GeoPlace recognised as an Investor In People

GeoPlace LLP, has been awarded accreditation against the Investors in People Standard, demonstrating our commitment to high performance through good people management.

GeoPlace was formed in 2011 following a government call for a standard index of addresses to bring together existing creators and suppliers of addressing data to one central place to build a single, definitive address database. Today, with its staff of 67 people, GeoPlace maintains a national scale information infrastructure that supports the needs of both the public sector and a wider commercial market.

Investors in People is the international standard for people management, defining what it takes to lead, support and manage people effectively to achieve sustainable results. Underpinning the Standard is the Investors in People framework, reflecting the latest workplace trends, essential skills and effective structures required to outperform in any industry. Investors in People enables organisations to benchmark against the best in the business on an international scale.

Paul Devoy, Head of Investors in People, said: "We'd like to congratulate GeoPlace. Investors in People accreditation is the sign of a great employer, an outperforming place to work and a clear commitment to success. GeoPlace should be extremely proud of their achievement."

Commenting on the award, Richard Mason, Managing Director of GeoPlace said: "GeoPlace's staff are our greatest asset. Our people are talented and committed and like working here because they feel challenged, can collaborate with others and enjoy freedom in their work. Our expertise, along with our ability to manage and define our work effectively and efficiently to meet changing business, user and industry needs in a robust, adaptable and professional manner allows us to achieve the results we do. I am delighted that we have been recognised as an investor in people."
