Macquarie Cloud Services named Australia’s #1 Best Place to Work for Third Consecutive Year 

Sydney, Australia — Macquarie Cloud Services, part of Macquarie Technology Group (ASX: MAQ), has once again been named Australia’s #1 Best Workplace in the Small category by Great Place to Work Australia, marking an extraordinary third consecutive year at the top. 

This recognition reflects something that has been built over many years: a culture grounded in trust, purpose, genuine connection and a shared commitment to doing great work for our customers and each other. 

As reported in iTWire’s coverage of Macquarie Cloud Services being named Australia’s Best Workplace three years running, the 2026 Best Workplaces in Australia ranking was informed by a comprehensive survey of more than 128,000 employees over the past 12 months, assessing workplace culture across credibility, respect, fairness, pride and camaraderie. 

Great workplace cultures aren’t created overnight, and they certainly don’t stand still. They are shaped through everyday actions: supporting a teammate, sharing an idea, challenging the status quo, learning from mistakes and working together to deliver better outcomes. 

Three years at #1 

Being ranked #1 for a third consecutive year demonstrates the consistency of the experience our people have created together, even as Macquarie Cloud Services continues to grow and evolve. 

As James Mystakidis, Group Executive, Macquarie Cloud Services, said: 

“Winning the #1 Great Place to Work three years running tells you this isn’t luck, it’s a principle we live by. When you put people first, everything else follows.” 

Our people are fundamental to everything we achieve. Their expertise, curiosity and commitment enable us to solve complex challenges for Australian organisations while continuing to raise the standard of service our customers expect from us. 

A culture built together 

Culture isn’t something that belongs to one team or leadership group. It belongs to everyone. 

We want our people to feel trusted and empowered to do their best work. That means encouraging open conversations, creating opportunities to learn and develop, recognising great work and giving people the confidence to challenge existing ways of doing things. 

That environment also has a direct impact on our customers. When our people have clear direction, genuine support and the freedom to think differently, they are better equipped to solve difficult problems and deliver exceptional outcomes. 

It is this connection between our people, our culture and the experience we create for customers that continues to shape who we are.

Because being a great place to work isn’t about a ranking alone. It’s about the experience we create together every day.
