Established in 2008, Seating Matters set out to create clinical, therapeutic seating that would cater to the holistic needs of patients and their caregivers – providing comfort, postural support, pressure management and improving quality of life.
These clinically enhanced chairs manufactured in Limavady are supplied to UK / Ireland health and care facilities, and are exported around the world to Australia, North America and across Europe.
We’re absolutely thrilled to announce that Seating Matters has been recognised with not one, but two prestigious awards at the Causeway Chamber of Commerce ceremony: Employer of the Year and Leader of the Year! These honours celebrate our commitment to fostering an innovative, supportive workplace and the strength of our leadership.
Employer of the Year: A Testament to Our Team
Winning Employer of the Year is a huge honour and highlights our dedication to building a workplace where every person feels valued and empowered. This award acknowledges the strong culture we’ve created at Seating Matters—a culture built on trust, continuous development, and mutual support. From personal growth initiatives to morning meetings led by team members and celebrating successes together, we’re committed to providing an environment where everyone can thrive.
We go beyond the basics with unique benefits like birthdays off, monthly team lunches and learning opportunities. The fact that we have people working together seamlessly from locations around the world, including Australia, America and our home in Limavady is a testament to the strength and unity of our team.
Leader of the Year: Celebrating Exemplary Leadership
Our Leader of the Year award is a tribute to the exceptional guidance that Martin Tierney brings to the team every day. Martin’s leadership, along with his two brothers Jonathan and Ryan, has been instrumental in shaping the values that drive Seating Matters forward, creating an environment where every team member feels empowered, supported, and motivated to excel.
Through his commitment to open communication and encouragement of innovation, Martin exemplifies what it means to lead with integrity, vision, and empathy. We’re incredibly proud to celebrate Martin’s outstanding contribution to our company’s success.
Reflecting on These Milestones
These two awards represent more than recognition—they affirm our ongoing dedication to excellence in everything we do, from designing world-class seating solutions to creating a dynamic, inclusive workplace. As we celebrate this moment, we’re also looking forward to raising the bar even higher, guided by our incredible team and leadership.
Thank you to the Causeway Chamber of Commerce for these awards, and congratulations to every member of the Seating Matters family who has made this possible! Here’s to many more successes in the future.
