Beaverbrooks

You don’t buy jewellery every day, so when you do, it’s a special occasion. Beaverbrooks offer only the finest stones and precious metals from around the world, using the best designers and craftsmen to create special jewellery that includes bracelets, earrings, necklaces, pendants, chains, collarettes, watches, children’s jewellery, cufflinks, lockets, plus rings for all occasions including: diamond rings, engagement rings, wedding rings & eternity rings.

With over 700 people at 60 locations throughout the UK, Beaverbrooks plans to reach 75 branches by 2010. Beaverbrooks has been ranked, for three consecutive years, among the top five in The Sunday Times ’Best Companies To Work For’ awards. Also, each year Beaverbrooks donates 10% of post tax profits to numerous charities and for 2007 this has been increased to 20%. During 2006, £47,000 was raised for charity, and the target for 2007 is £60,000! Events such as tuck shops, the ’Beaverbrooks 10K Fun Run’, ’Race for Life’ etc. all encouraged people to donate to charity.

Sparkling customer service is how their stores set themselves apart from their competitors. Staff are polished into shape by excellent managers and the inspirational leadership of managing director Mark Adlestone ñ a three times winner of The Sunday Times Top 100 leadership award. Beaverbrooks might sell diamonds and watches but it’s their people that are its most valuable asset.
