The nation's largest employer of property valuers, Herron Todd White, has been successful in their maiden entry of gaining 'best employer' status through the internationally respected Hewitt Best Employers Engagement Survey.

"Reaching the highest overall category is an outstanding recognition of the value we place on our people, but of course there is always more we can do in being an employer of choice" says Herron Todd White CEO Brendon Hulcombe.

"We've tried to develop an employment brand that attracts the talent to us, and then spend the time on our people to develop them further.  We've also developed a reputation for high quality work, good morales and ethics etc, I think that does a lot to attract the right sort of people to us in the first place." Hulcombe says.

This news come off the back of Herron Todd White's recent internal staff engagement survey which recorded that 98% of respondents were 'proud to work for Herron Todd White'.

Earlier this year Herron Todd White was proud to be a winner in BRW's Client Choice awards, taking out the category of 'best specialist firm'.

This week also marks the launch of Herron Todd White's new Emerging Leaders' Program which puts high potential participants through their paces over a 12 month period in areas such as emotional intelligence, communication styles, self awareness, strategy and general leadership principles and practices.

Herron Todd White has 44 offices located across every state and territory and undertakes valuations for all classes of property including specialisations in Commercial, Rural and Residential.
