QMetrix has officially been named one of the Best Places to Work in Australia for 2026, securing the 29th spot in the highly competitive Small Companies category.
This prestigious ranking follows the company’s recent Great Place to Work® certification – the fourth consecutive win – underscoring its ongoing commitment to fostering an exceptional workplace culture.
The Best Places to Work list recognises organisations that seamlessly blend strong business performance with high-trust, people-first environments. Rankings are based on employee feedback collected through the Trust Index™ survey, keeping the focus on real employee experience.
“Securing a spot in the Best Places to Work list is a proud milestone for QMetrix, but the real victory is knowing our team feels genuinely supported and enjoy working here. We’ve always believed that our strength lies in our culture.
“By fostering an environment built on trust, open communication, and respect for our team’s work-life integration, we enable our people to bring their authentic selves to work. This recognition belongs to our team who shape our positive culture every single day“.
So, what are some things that shape a “Best Place to Work”? There are several elements and you can read how our team ranked various aspects of working at QMetrix here. Here are some to elaborate on:
Balancing development and business outcomes
One challenge facing people leaders today is how to balance time spent on producing outcomes versus personal development. Especially in a busy client-centric environment, there is often more work to be done.
At QMetrix, we recognise that people are at the core of everything the company does. While it takes time and intentionality to invest in personal development, leadership believe that it pays off in the long run; when people grow, they also have higher levels of job satisfaction and perform better.
As an example of this, QMetrix staff indicated wanting more professional development, as well as being given the dedicated time to pursue it. The company acknowledged this desire and prioritised it. Key initiatives included investing in a learning platform that provides open access to a library of online courses, and creating peer groups around specific development topics to increase uptake and review learnings.
The response has been positive, and improvement in this area has been clearly reflected in responses across Great Place to Work surveys over the past years.
A culture designed for both the business and the team
When it comes to employee benefits, QMetrix doesn’t compete to offer the biggest or best perks. Instead, we consider direct employee feedback and focus on what works specifically for our unique organisation, aiming to create an overall positive culture that attracts people to join and compels them to stay.
Case in point – one unique aspect of QMetrix is our size and the way we work. We avoid the constraints of unnecessary layers of hierarchy or bureaucracy, which are not required in a team of 35 people.
Another key part of the culture and work environment is the genuine flexibility QMetrix offers. We offer hybrid work arrangements where people can mix working from home and the office, a purchased leave program, flexible work timing where it makes sense, and parents can drop off and pick up their kids in the middle of the day with no fuss.
The core focus remains on empowering individuals to do what works best for them while operating within the context of business need. In return, the team consistently delivers their best work.
Louise Daglish, HR Manager at QMetrix, says, “I have worked at several companies and as a HR consultant through my career, and I can honestly say that QMetrix is a positive place to work at. You see people who truly enjoy what they do, leaders who care about their people, and a culture that is uplifting”.
QMetrix – a leading employer and workplace of choice
With this double recognition in 2026 – both the Great Place to Work certification and ranking among Australia’s best small businesses – QMetrix proves that a focus on the team’s professional growth, alongside full trust in the team’s capabilities, is a fantastic way to build a successful work culture that people enjoy being part of.
This doesn’t mean we rest on our laurels. Moving forward and as QMetrix grows, the company remains dedicated to shaping its culture alongside its people so we can continue being truly one of the Best Places to Work in the APAC region.
“I am pleased to see our team confirm QMetrix as a great place to work again. Our company prides ourselves on hearing feedback from our team and finding opportunities to make our amazing workplace culture even better. This enables us to remain grounded and continue to show our care for our team. The Great Place To Work recognition belongs to every member of our team, because it’s their commitment, collaboration and care that make QMetrix such a great place to be”.
