Clancy has been named one of Ireland’s Best Managed Companies for the eleventh consecutive year, reaffirming its place among the leading privately-owned businesses on the island. The announcement was made at the awards ceremony in Dublin’s RDS on Thursday, 25th September 2025.
This year, 115 companies were recognised through Deloitte’s prestigious programme, collectively generating a combined turnover of more than €22 billion and employing over 62,000 people across sectors ranging from technology and healthcare to manufacturing and construction.
Rigorous Judging Process
The Best Managed Companies programme, now in its 17th year, is the only awards scheme on the island of Ireland that evaluates a company’s entire management team and strategy. Each applicant undergoes a thorough review by an independent judging panel of industry leaders and academics.
Assessment extends far beyond financial performance, with judges examining areas such as:
- Leadership and governance
- Strategic planning and execution
- Environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards
- Talent strategy and culture of innovation
The result is a network of companies that not only deliver growth but also demonstrate resilience, adaptability, and long-term vision.
A Decade of Consistent Excellence
Being named a Best Managed Company for eleven consecutive years is a milestone that underlines Clancy’s commitment to excellence, innovation, and sustainable growth. Few companies in Ireland have achieved this level of consistent recognition.
Part of a Thriving Business Community
The 2025 Best Managed Companies cohort represents a cross-section of Ireland’s economic landscape. From indigenous family-owned enterprises to scaling technology firms, the programme highlights the strength of businesses that are not only competing nationally but also on international stages.
Clancy’s recognition places it among a community of leaders that collectively drive forward Ireland’s economy, shaping the built environment, delivering employment, and setting benchmarks for governance and sustainability.
Looking Ahead
As Clancy celebrates this latest achievement, the focus remains firmly on the future: delivering projects that make a lasting impact, supporting sustainable development, and continuing to invest in people and innovation.
For Clancy, being recognised as one of Ireland’s Best Managed Companies for the eleventh consecutive year is more than an award — it is a validation of a philosophy that has underpinned the company for decades: building with integrity, vision, and excellence.
