The team culture is collaborative, no big egos - everyone is respectful of each other, they value open dialogue and encourage everyone to share their ideas.

The team are empowered to take ownership of their work, and they all work well together to achieve their goals.

Everyone works hard but they all have a life outside of the office, and regularly finish their working day by 6pm/6.30pm - while people are encouraged to initially be in the office 5 days a week to get to know the business, the norm is 3 days in the office with 2 WFH.
