Company values
- Transparency: We advocate for transparency because our values define how we work together to build our company. As our CEO Jason said “Transparency is important because it brings clarity for everyone else on what they’ve got to do"
- Global Team: Different backgrounds, different cultures, same values. Considering ourselves as a global team stretches our thinking process, we find ideas on how to improve requires different perspectives and this is enhance through diversity
- Pioneering Mindset: We value our diversity and spirit of togetherness. As the saying goes we push ourselves not because it is easy but because it is hard. Hard challenges drive us forward, new ideas won't necessarily solve problems but it means we're taking risks from which to learn and get better
- Integrity: We conduct ourselves in a way that maintains trust and respect - we are truthful and honest both personally and professionally. This means truly recognising our mistakes, and understanding what needs to change or needs to improve to ensure we don't make mistakes again
- Data Driven: We seek to make decisions, modify behaviours and change processes based on data-led insights rather than intuition. It means anyone in any role can try something out, make a change or make a difference and show it's a better way of working
