The Doncaster Business Awards are the most prestigious awards in the region and the largest business awards in Yorkshire. The awards celebrate the very best of Doncaster's business community - recognising the high calibre of work being delivered by organisations across the borough and beyond.

VolkerRail has been shortlisted in three categories - Large Business of the Year, Excellence in People Development and the Business Engaging with Education Award.

The Large Business of the Year Award is presented to the company that best demonstrates all-round excellence in business, with a focus on financial performance, future objectives, a commitment to customer service and business growth. The Excellence in People Development Award is presented to the company that demonstrates their efforts and results from investing in staff development, and the Business Engaging with Education Award recognises businesses working in partnership with schools, to support young people and raise their career aspirations.

Commenting, Steve Cocliff, VolkerRail managing director said: “As a Doncaster based business, we are extremely proud to be a finalist in the Doncaster Business Awards. VolkerRail continues to strive for excellence in all areas, and to be recognised for the work that has gone into developing our people and our social value programme is a credit to everyone involved.”

The winners will be announced at an awards ceremony on 16 December 2021, at Doncaster Racecourse.
