This edition of Volaris in the Media highlights recent outside mentions of our parent company, portfolio businesses, and leaders that recognize the industry expertise and reputational excellence they have built over time.
Constellation Software recognized by Newsweek for Leadership & Trust
Constellation Software, the parent company of Volaris Group, was recognized by Newsweek. The company was named to the Greatest Workplaces for Leadership 2026 and Greatest Workplaces for Trust 2026, both in the 5,000 to 20,000 employee category. While Constellation Software has a global presence, we have acquired many businesses in the U.S.
The leadership ranking, produced by Newsweek in partnership with Plant-A Insights Group, recognizes employers whose leadership inspires through clear vision, transparency, and employee empowerment. Meanwhile, the trust ranking recognizes employers who show a commitment to a culture of integrity and transparency.
The methodology for the leadership ranking combined a nationwide survey of more than 77,000 working professionals. Metrics included overall satisfaction scores from online employee reviews, satisfaction with management, employee happiness, and worker appreciation. Meanwhile, the methodology for the trust ranking combined a large-scale, independent survey conducted between April 2025 and October 2025, that collected responses from more than 179,000 employees. Additionally, data from three previous studies that took place between 2022 and 2024, encompassing 400,000 interviews. Research for both rankings drew from more than 37 million data points across more than 120 Key Performance Indicators provided by HR analytics firm Aniine.ai.

SSP leader featured in Africa Insurance Magazine
Stuart Redfearn, Managing Director at SSP Worldwide wrote a piece in Africa Insurance Magazine describing his leadership approach at SSP Worldwide, which is to create conditions for teams to succeed globally while staying focused on customer outcomes. Echoing the decentalized model of business at Volaris Group, he recognizes that the best solutions come from teams close to their markets.
He stresses that a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work across Africa’s diverse regulatory and market landscape, so SSP’s model pairs global best practice with local, market-specific teams. Increasingly, he is seeing innovation not as a one-way flow into Africa, but with Africa leading in many cases. “We are increasingly seeing ideas and approaches developed in African markets influencing thinking elsewhere. In areas such as product design and customer engagement, the need for agility is driving solutions that are relevant globally,” he writes.
