Sewell Group is a multi-disciplined group of companies operating across the North of England. As a family business, it has a long and illustrious history dating back to 1876. Alongside its retail division, which operates multiple fuel and convenience stores across East Yorkshire, Sewell Estates is a collective of built environment businesses made up of Sewell Investments, Sewell Advisory, Sewell Construction, Sewell Facilities Management, and I&G.
At the heart of the business’ vision and strategy is delivering value for the communities it serves, promoting opportunities by employing local people and investing in developing talent, as well as giving back to communities and supporting the regional economy through commissioning the local supply chain.
Sewell pride themselves on their commitment to support, train, develop, and reward employees. In return, they ask that their employees work hard, live the company behaviours, and have some fun along the way. Culture is a massive part of the day-to-day life at Sewell and its people follow core principles of being Positive; Professional; Customer Focused; Team Players; and Always Doing the Right Thing.
In 2021 the Group was recognised as one of only 18 businesses across the country in the Queen’s Awards for Enterprise for Promoting Opportunity – the most prestigious accolade for UK businesses. We have also been recognised again in 2022 as a 3 Star World Class 'Best Companies to Work For' and feature in the Sunday Times Top 100 Companies list. Sewell on the go has been awarded a GroceryAid Gold Award in both 2023 and 2024, recognising its dedication to supporting team members and promoting the work that GroceryAid does to support those in the industry.
On 1 January 2023, the Estates side of our business, which includes Sewell Investments, Sewell Advisory, Parallel, Sewell Construction, I&G, and Sewell Facilities Management, became part employee-owned. Our majority shareholder, Paul Sewell, moved 25% of the company’s shares into an employee ownership trust, meaning our people are now Co-Owners in the business, giving them a greater say in how the business is run and the potential to share in any company profits.
After passing six months service with a Sewell Estates business, our people become Co-Owners, and can share in the rewards of doing so. What those rewards look like is determined by our Co-Owner Council and Trust Board, which represent the views of all our colleagues from across the different businesses.
Our culture is what sets us apart. Doing the right thing by our people, caring for our planet, and having an impact on the places where we work is what drives us every day. What unites us is our culture, and our core behaviours that drive our actions every day. And that’s why our clients, customers, and partners trust us to deliver.
We have a performance culture and our people are given the freedom to make decisions, manage projects and do what they think is right – with the support of the wider team. It’s why so many of our people have worked with us for a long time; they spot a new opportunity and have the chance to make it a reality. Employee satisfaction and wellbeing are central to our ethos – we know our people work hard and we want to make sure they’re rewarded.
We grow our own talent - with a whole host of leadership development courses and funding for training, we're committed to support our team to develop their careers, should they want to.
Employee Wellbeing is at the top of our priority list. We offer regular access to health and wellbeing workshops, have mental health first aiders in all our businesses, free gym classes, and free, confidential counselling support. Our culture and values are what set us apart. Our people are talented, cared for, and unleashed.
Our team benefit from world-class flexible working areas with numerous breakout spaces for collaboration. We have EV charging points as well as initiatives to help our people reduce their carbon footprint alongside our wider decarbonisation agenda.
At Sewell Group, our people get five paid days to volunteer where they want to support their local community.
