Last year, Kate Banerjee (right) presented the Best Employer award to Harrogate-based Cloud Nine.

Companies that go above and beyond to look after their employees and invest in their development are being urged to enter the Stray Ferret Business Awards 2026.

To qualify for the Best Employer award, entrants should embrace a culture of high performance, emphasise company values, and have systems in place to inspire their workforce to do their best.

The award, which is sponsored by Harrogate-based family and divorce solicitors Jones Myers, is one of 10 categories in the awards.

Kate Banerjee, Jones Myers partner and head of the firm’s award-winning children’s department, said:

As an established employer in the Harrogate district, supporting the Best Employer category chimes with our firm’s ethos to develop and nurture our teams and support the next generation through wide-ranging initiatives.

The awards are a perfect showcase for businesses who deliver excellence in customer care and who encourage and inspire their employees to achieve their potential and be the best that they can be.

The Stray Ferret Business Awards, which are once again sponsored by financial adviser Prosperis, recognise the brightest and best of the region’s business talent across all sectors.

They are open to entrants from across the Harrogate district, including Boroughbridge, Harrogate, Knaresborough, Masham, Nidderdale, Ripon and the surrounding areas.

The winners will be announced to 350 guests at a superb black-tie event in the Pavilions of Harrogate on March 26.
