Values

Our team values

Intellectual Curiosity

We have a genuine interest in learning; poking and probing and finding stuff out is what we’re made of.

Ownership

We’re independent, we’re opinionated and we own up to our stuff; there's no hiding behind three layers of management.

Transparency

We work in an open space, both literally and figuratively, knowledge is shared, initiative is encouraged, options are debated, decisions are public.

Togetherness

We support each other and win together; we give credit to individuals and take credit as a team.
