JN Bentley awarded platinum membership of The 5% Club

JN Bentley is delighted to have been awarded platinum membership of The 5% Club, following the annual Employer Audit Scheme.


The 5% Club


The 5% Club represents a powerful movement of companies working together to make workplace training more inclusive, diverse, and accessible. The Club exists to help its members and all employers to further increase the number, quality and range of earn and learn opportunities across the UK.


In joining The 5% Club, members aspire to achieve at least 5% of their workforce in ‘earn and learn’ positions – including apprentices, sponsored students and graduates on formalised training schemes.

Over the past three years, more than 10% of JN Bentley’s workforce have been in apprenticeship, placement and graduate roles meaning that in the 2024 employer audit, the company was awarded platinum membership. In 2022 and 2023 JN Bentley was awarded gold membership.


Judith Jeffery, HR Director said: “We are delighted to have been awarded platinum membership with The 5% Club,  an achievement that belongs to all of us at JN Bentley. With a long legacy of talent development, this recognition represents our collective advocacy and investment in supporting those at the start of their careers in construction and engineering.”


JN Bentley’s early careers programme continues to grow, providing a valuable gateway into the industry, helping apprentices, placement students and graduates establish and build fulfilling careers. 


Mark Cameron OBE, Chief Executive at The 5% Club, commented: “We are incredibly proud of the outstanding employers, like JN Bentley who have gone above and beyond to invest in the future of their workforce through a diverse range of 'earn and learn' initiatives. Their dedication, especially during these challenging times, deserves to be celebrated. By achieving platinum membership, JN Bentley has shown an exceptional commitment to shaping the skills of tomorrow, contributing not only to their business but to the wider economy.”
