A CROSS Hills car dealership's parent company has been named one of the best firms in Britain to work for.

The Sytner Group is among the top three, for the second consecutive year, in the Sunday Times 100 Best Companies to Work For list.

And it has now featured in the leading five for the past seven years.

Rankings are worked out using data from anonymous surveys.

The group also received a coveted award, for the third year running, in recognition of workplace engagement.

Emma Spedding – brand manager at Sytner Volkswagen Skipton, in Skipton Road, Cross Hills – said: "The awards highlight what a fantastic company this is to work for.

"The progression and training opportunities are second to none and we really believe as a business that offering initiatives for employees results in a better service and experience for our customers."

Darren Edwards, group managing director, paid tribute to all the staff.

"No other company has shown such a consistently high level of scores," he added.
