At Premier Marinas we care about setting the highest standards in everything we do. A sense of pride and professionalism combined with a friendly and supportive environment is ingrained in our ethos.

The importance of ‘how things are done’ has been central to Premier’s culture from the very beginning, and this is demonstrated in our management approach. Taking care of the environment, keeping staff and customers safe and creating a great place for people to work is important to us. This is reflected in the recognition we have received from third parties. We also believe in a process of continuous improvement, so while we are proud of our achievements, we are always looking towards the next step.

Award-winning sites

We are proud of all our marinas, and work hard to continually improve our sites with a rolling schedule of investment and upgrades. Many of our sites are worthy recipients of the Yacht Harbour Association’s Five Gold Anchors Award. The Gold Anchor Scheme is a trusted measure of marina excellence. It awards between one and five gold anchors. Five Gold Anchors is the highest accolade, given to marinas with the very best facilities and service.

Health and safety awards

Premier Marinas was first awarded ISO 45001:2018 certification, an international standard for running effective occupational health and safety management systems, back in 2019. This involved a comprehensive 12-month review of Premier’s health and safety management system, including audits at Premier’s Head Office and all 10 marinas to ensure uniformity of working practices.

ISO environmental accreditation

Premier was awarded ISO 14001 Environmental Certification in 2018, affirming the group’s dedication to improving its environmental performance. Fairly common accreditations in other industries, Premier was the first marina group to obtain these quality standards. In 2023 we received ISO 14064, which includes the reporting and verification of our Greenhouse Gas emissions.
