Rickard Luckin achieves prestigious 3-Star Best Companies accreditation

15/05/2026

Rickard Luckin is proud to announce it has achieved a 3-star accreditation from Best Companies, the highest standard of workplace engagement recognition awarded by the organisation and a mark of ‘world-class’ levels of employee engagement.

The accreditation is based on feedback gathered through Best Companies’ independent ‘b-heard’ survey, with colleagues across the firm sharing their experiences of working at Rickard Luckin.

Built around “The RL Way” and the firm’s Work Well, Live Well culture, Rickard Luckin continues to invest in an environment where people feel supported both professionally and personally, are encouraged to develop rewarding careers, and are empowered to thrive.

This commitment to its people is fundamental to how the firm delivers for its clients. By nurturing a highly engaged and motivated team, Rickard Luckin enhances its ability to build strong relationships, provide meaningful insight and trusted advice that helps clients to move forward with confidence towards their goals.

To celebrate the achievement, the firm hosted “Rickard Luckin 3-Star Week” across its offices, bringing the team together for a series of activities focused on connection, appreciation and shared success. The celebrations reflected the culture at the heart of the business and recognised the role every individual has played in achieving this milestone.

Kate Bell, Managing Director at Rickard Luckin, said:

“Achieving 3-star accreditation is an incredibly special moment for our firm because it genuinely reflects the culture our people experience every day. The survey shows that our team feel valued, supported and able to realise their potential and that is something we are immensely proud of.

Whilst this accreditation recognises what it means to work at Rickard Luckin, it also underpins the service we deliver to our clients. When people feel engaged and believe in what we stand for, they bring energy, insight and commitment to every client relationship.

Our role goes far beyond providing accountancy and tax advice. We are here to work in partnership with our clients; creating clarity, guiding decisions and supporting them at every stage of their journey. The strength and depth of our team means we can truly help clients realise their potential and achieve their aims.

It is an honour to work alongside such an exceptional team. We are proud of everything we have achieved together and excited about what lies ahead for both our people and our clients.”

Darren Clarke, People Director at Rickard Luckin, added:

“We are incredibly proud of what this achievement represents. Our people are at the heart of every decision we make, and we are committed to continually enhancing the employee experience at every stage of someone’s career with us.

Through The RL Way and our Work Well, Live Well approach, we have built an environment where people feel trusted, valued and supported to succeed in a way that works for them.

Achieving Best Companies’ highest accreditation is a testament to the culture our people have created together. It is this culture that enables our teams to do their very best work for each other and for our clients, and makes Rickard Luckin such a positive and special place to work.”
