Improve personal Credit Rating with Corporate Credit Cards

I am new to the UK so I have very little credit. I have a corporate AMEX with work that's in my name. I purchase with the AMEX, claim expenses, work sends money to my personal bank account, and then AMEX takes the money from my personal account.
Can this corporate card card be mentioned in credit reports to improve my rating?

All that matters is your history is correct on all 3 reports.
Check your reports to see if the Amex is listed.1 -
I've had numerous corporate cards (Amex, Visa, even Diners Club) with various employers over the years. Not one has ever been reported on my credit file.
In any case, is this card of yours a credit or charge card (the latter is more normal for corporate cards, and that has to be paid in full every month regardless)?1
