Bishop Fleming, a leading Cheltenham tax, audit and accountancy firm with offices cross the south west and Midlands, has been ranked in the top 20 of The Sunday Times Top 100 Apprenticeship Employers list.
Coming in at number 11 on the prestigious list, this new ranking is Bishop Fleming's highest ever for its apprenticeship programmes.
The announcement comes just after Bishop Fleming also achieved an Outstanding Ofsted rating across all five aspects of its Level 7 Apprenticeship.
The Sunday Times Top 100 list recognises UK organisations that are leading the way in delivering high-quality, inclusive and impactful apprenticeship programmes.
It's compiled using independent data and robust scoring across key performance areas, including new apprentice starts, programme completion rates and diversity.
Anna Averis, partner and chief people officer for Bishop Fleming, said: 'We’re extremely proud to be recognised in The Sunday Times Top 100 and to rank so highly alongside some of the UK’s biggest employers.
'This is a direct result of the commitment and care shown by our teams across the business to create a nurturing, progressive environment where our apprentices thrive. It speaks volumes about the strength of our people strategy and our belief in building talent from the ground up.'
The firm is continuing a period of growth for its apprenticeship programme, with 74 new apprentices expected to join by September 2025.
Managing partner, Andrew Sandiford, added: 'This recognition is a clear signal to prospective candidates, clients and peers that Bishop Fleming is serious about building for the future.
'Our apprentices bring energy, innovation and capability to every part of our business. As we continue to deliver on our Better Growth strategy, they play a crucial role in shaping the firm we want to become.'
