Southwire Canada Earns 2026-2027 Great Place to Work Certification™

May 4, 2026

Southwire Canada is proud to be Certified™ by Great Place To Work® for the fifth time. This prestigious award is based entirely on what current Southwire Canada team members say about their experience working at Southwire. 

Great Place To Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience and the leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation.

“Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience,” says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, the Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work. She emphasizes that Certification is the sole official recognition earned by the real-time feedback of employees regarding their company culture. “By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that Southwire stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees.”

“We are incredibly proud to receive the Great Place To Work Certification again this year,” said Winn Wise, Southwire’s Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer. “This recognition demonstrates how fostering a culture centered on our values creates a supportive environment for all our team members.”

Over the past year, the Southwire welcomed Ian Rand as VP, President of its Canada business. Under Rand’s leadership, the Southwire Canada team has implemented new opportunities for professional growth and promotions within its job structure for team members.

“Being named a Great Place to Work reflects the culture our team has intentionally built together, grounded in trust, respect and shared success,” said Rand. “I’m proud of our people and the environment we continue to create every day.”
