UK Coin Specialists Hattons of London Awarded Prestigious ‘We Invest in People’ Gold Accreditation
Investors in People is delighted to award Hattons of London, specialist in rare and exclusive gold coins, the ‘We Invest in People’, gold accreditation.
Gold accreditation means that you’ve got the policies in place but more than that, it means everyone – from CEO to apprentice takes ownership for making them come to life.
Only 17% of our accredited organisations achieve Gold.
Established in 2017, Hattons of London has undergone remarkable growth, expanding its team from 11 to 45 in just five years. Despite challenges posed by the global pandemic, 2021 proved to be the company’s most successful yet and the company shows no signs of slowing down, with increased demand as a result of this year’s Platinum Jubilee prompting a recruitment drive to further grow the specialist team.
Hattons of London is committed to ensuring that each team member has the tools and the support they need to thrive in their career, through clear career development plans and a comprehensive programme of both internal and external training opportunities. This enhanced training offer was something that was highlighted by Investors in People as one of the company’s key strengths.
This openness to innovation, especially when it comes to finding new opportunities for staff development is evident in initiatives like the successful Sales Agent Academy. Through the Academy, Hattons of London has transformed the way it onboards new staff, offering specialist coin training and peer mentorship to give new team members the very best foundations from which to launch their career within the business.
Rewarding staff for their hard work is an ethos that Hattons of London has maintained since its launch. With an impressive range of staff incentives on offer, the Hattons of London culture is one where every member of staff feels encouraged to constantly strive to reach their full potential.
As well as life changing performance-based incentives, including travel opportunities through annual company organised trips, Hattons of London also runs an Employee of the Year scheme. Through the scheme, the chosen employees can benefit from a substantial reward in the form of a share of the company’s annual profits. This scheme works hand in hand with an Employee of the Month scheme, which offers smaller, but more regular rewards to a top performing team member on a monthly basis.
Paul Devoy, CEO of Investors in People, said: “We’d like to congratulate Hattons of London. Gold accreditation on We invest in people is a fantastic effort for any organisation, and places Hattons of London in fine company with a host of organisations that understand the value of people.”
Commenting on the award, Simon Mellinger, Managing Director at Hattons of London said: “We are thrilled to have achieved the coveted gold accreditation. The accolade is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire company who are the very heart of the business.
“We are incredibly proud of our ‘people first’ approach which we apply not only to our customers but internally, ensuring that every member of the Hattons of London team feels supported, valued and most of all, able to develop and able to share in our success.”
