We’re thrilled to announce that MBM Omega has been awarded Apprentice Employer of the Year at the SME Surrey Business Awards 2025!
This prestigious accolade underscores our long-standing commitment to nurturing emerging talent and providing meaningful career pathways - an achievement particularly meaningful as it comes after we were previously shortlisted as finalists in three categories: Apprentice of the Year, Apprentice Employer of the Year, and Service Excellence.
Why This Matters
Apprentice Employer of the Year isn’t just a title - it’s a testament to the power of structured training, mentorship, and investment in people. The award recognises employers who go the extra mile to support apprentices so they, in turn, can propel the business forward.
For MBM Omega, this accolade reflects over a decade of fostering apprenticeship success stories and building a strong, skilled team grounded in opportunity, growth, and real-world learning.
Apprentices at the Heart of MBM Omega
Our apprenticeship programme has become a cornerstone of our company culture. From offering a solid Level 3 foundation to supporting progression into degree-level apprenticeships, we’ve created a genuine developmental pathway. Recent highlights include Jayden Benjafield’s outstanding performance - honoured with Silver in the Apprentice of the Year category - a journey that began just over two years ago and now continues through a degree apprenticeship of his own.
This kind of progression isn’t accidental - it’s built through deliberate support, mentorship, and a culture that values learning and long-term employee engagement. “This award is a proud recognition of the passion, potential, and perseverance of our team - especially the apprentices whose drive shapes our success.” Joanna Morton, Corporate Director.
A Moment of Celebration and Motivation
Winning Apprentice Employer of the Year is not just a milestone - it’s fuel for the future. It validates our values and inspires us to keep raising the bar for excellence, innovation, and opportunity for all.
Congratulations to every member of the MBM Omega family - this win belongs to you. And thanks to the judges and organisers of the SME Surrey Business Awards for recognising what we hold dear: investing in people truly builds the future.
