Steer features in the Employee Ownership Top 50 2021 Report

Steer is pleased to announce that we feature in the Employee Ownership Association's Top 50 Report 2021.

By Steer

Steer is pleased to announce that we feature in the Employee Ownership Association's Top 50 Report 2021 as one of the fifty largest employee-owned companies in the UK. 

For over four decades, we have been proudly independent, which means our staff have a direct interest in the wellbeing and success of the company. We have deliberately invested in our ownership structure because we believe our impartiality through the lack of third-party owners or lenders means that we are free to deploy unfettered thinking and advice to our clients and grow our business in a sustainable, creative and rewarding way.

The Top 50 list, compiled annually by employee ownership advisers RM2 in partnership with the Employee Ownership Association (EOA), covers independent UK-registered companies that are at least 25% owned by their employees on a broad basis, together with UK subsidiaries of non-UK companies that are more than 75% employee-owned.

To view the full findings of the Employee Ownership Top 50 Report, please visit the Employee Ownership Association website.
