What defines us

Ryan employees are the key differentiator that makes our culture dynamic and unique. Our empowering workplace culture has resulted in one of the highest employee retention rates in the industry. A key factor for this has been its transformative leadership making investments in the infrastructure, a brand-new office, and a powerful internal support structure.

We continuously seek feedback through several channels to modify and improve our benefits to meet our employee needs. We strongly believe in asking employees for new, innovative ideas to provide feedback to management and have their voices heard, and we consistently act on their feedback to develop.

Ryan’s culture is unique, and the levels of freedom and accountability are perfect for employees that thrive in an empowered environment. As a result, Ryan team members are incredibly self-driven and internally motivated. What really stands out in the UK office is the camaraderie, where team members are genuinely interested in and care for their colleagues; having a friendly and supportive team makes Ryan a Great Place to Work.

What inspires us

In 2008, Ryan launched myRyan, an innovative work environment that changed the measurement of work performance from hours worked to results achieved. The Firm rolled out myRyan as a major culture shift designed to reach even higher levels of client service and employee satisfaction. Since its inception, myRyan has delivered tremendous dividends for the Firm, its clients, and its employees.

Ryan has dramatically improved employee retention and satisfaction, while demonstrating solid year-over-year revenue growth. Most importantly, Ryan employees have achieved the highest client satisfaction ratings in the history of the Firm, while enjoying the freedom to meet the competing demands of work and life.

We regularly celebrate success, spanning from team drinks and lunches, social activities, such as quiz and karaoke nights, team building challenges, as well as additional holiday entitlement for collectively achieving exceptional results for the Firm.
