Scurri, the Irish software provider that connects and optimises the eCommerce ordering, shipping and delivery process, is delighted to announce that it has been officially recognised as one of the Best Workplaces in Ireland in 2021. 

Headquartered in Ireland, Scurri employs 47 people at its base in Wexford Town. Scurri’s main market is the UK with customers including Gousto, Ocado and eBay.

This is Scurri’s third consecutive year to be named as a top Irish workplace, which is assessed through Great Place to Work’s robust ‘Trust Index©’ employee survey and a thorough ‘Culture Audit©’ assessment of their policies and practices.

Scurri was recognised as the 17th Best Small Workplace in Ireland 2021 from a list of 30 companies, which includes Asana, Adecco, and Stelfox. This year’s awards saw Scurri place as the only company based in the South East in the Small Business category.

“We are thrilled and honored to be a Best Place to Work. This is validation that our continued efforts to create a people-centric culture which focuses on family, fun and success is working. We are very proud of our Great Place to Work team and how engaged the whole company was throughout the process”.

“With the global pandemic, we have seen the eCommerce industry boom at unprecedented rates, with millions of shoppers being converted to online shoppers overnight. In the last three quarters, the industry has experienced three years of growth”.

said Rory O’Connor, CEO and Founder of Scurri.

“In a year where the concept of ‘place’ was unexpectedly ripped apart from the concept of ‘work’, these organisations have shown the strength and resilience that underlies the Great Place to Work ethos. Having developed a deep sense of trust within and across their teams, they have proved that anywhere – from a manufacturing facility to a spare bedroom – can be a Great Place to Work. What matters are the fundamentals: treating your employees with fairness and respect, and keeping them up to speed with relevant, authentic, and honest communication.”

said Cathal Divilly, CEO at Great Place to Work® Ireland.

“Reaching the criteria to appear on this list of Best Workplaces in Ireland is a massive achievement in any year, and all the more so in a year where disruptions to the workplace that would have taken decades were instead implemented practically overnight. Employees across Ireland have shown great levels of adaptability and flexibility to these circumstances – and they’ve also shown that, left to their own devices, they can deliver high levels of performance from anywhere. There’ll be plenty for us all to learn as we come out of this unprecedented time: but what’s already becoming clear is that top-quality talent will be drawn to workplaces that trust them to do their best work wherever they are. The organisations that we recognise this year have spent years developing high-trust relationships with their teams, and have spent this year continuing to strengthen and sustain those bonds. On behalf of all the team at Great Place to Work Ireland, I’d like to take the time to say congratulations to all of Ireland’s Best Workplaces 2021!”
