Our values

• Make it happen - We own things and get them done whatever it takes.
• Playful and positive - Life’s too short to take things too seriously, we like to have fun while we’re working and we love positivity - and yes the glass is half full.
• We’re in it together - We all have our day jobs to do, our KPIs to hit and projects to complete but we’re always available to help for the greater good of the business.
• No bullsh*t, no politics - Seriously! We want to enjoy coming to work and that stuff doesn’t make it pleasant.
• Know your stuff, keep learning - We value people who have the knowledge and have a thirst for it, lots of it.
• No drama - Things don’t always go right as much as we try, having a hissy fit over it won’t help the situation and you won’t find that here.
• With great data comes great responsibility - Personal data is a big thing, particularly when you are the custodian of a lot of it, we take that very seriously.
