💪 Ownership - You’re responsible for what you put out to our customers. If you have an idea, you run with it. It's okay to take risks as long as we understand what we will learn. You work here because you want to be trusted with autonomy and make a difference.
📈 Share results - We work in a transparent organisation that uses data as to aid our decision making. We set ourselves ambitious targets and we share the results of that and we openly talk about the learnings - what worked and what didn't so that we can improve next time.
📄 Communicate clearly - As we are a remote first organisation, we need to communicate in a clear, specific manner whilst providing the relevant details succinctly. We don't assume the other person has the data or view point that you do.
