THE BEHAVIOURS WE'RE LOOKING FOR

DRIVE

We are all different, but we must each find the fire inside us that inspires and enables us to think big, push harder and find our edge. We are unashamedly ambitious and competitive. We must create great work, try to make a dent in everything we touch and win.

IDEAS

We understand finding the best ideas requires us all to be bold, honest, vulnerable, brave and open at all times. We must all contribute. We must seek out and entertain new, conflicting opinions and thoughts to our own. We must be able to disagree, challenge, fail and go again. Boldspace is a safe, empathetic environment for every invention and every failure.

DETAIL

We care about and take pride in every full stop, every spelling, every comma, every line break, every word in every email, every page of every pitch deck, every proof of every document. How we present ourselves and our work is everything. We accept mistakes once, but not the same mistake twice.

PROACTIVITY

Reactivity is never enough. We must all shift the dial, unasked. Each of us must put unprompted items on our to-do lists every week. One additional proactive email, one proactive marketing idea, one proactive quick call. One extra action, that one day, will make a year- changing difference.

TOGETHERNESS

We stand together. We care about understanding each other, helping each other, sharing our views, knowledge and passions and absorbing each other's. We celebrate and respect our diversity - of thought, difference, opinion and experience. Each of us are a crucial, valued component of a bold, shared vision.

COMPANY VALUES AND CULTURE

BOLDNESS: We are proactively confident and courageous in our attitude and approach.

TRANSPARENCY: We are honest with our clients and each other.

EMPATHY: We care about each other and the world we live in.

CHALLENGE: We question what we are told and how things seem.

PROGRESSIVENESS: Our environment, company, people & product must always be better.

Benefits

Apart from a competitive starting salary and being part of growing something special, you can expect a truly radical place to work with maximum freedom and benefits:

Learning & development: everyone has a compulsory 1/2 day a month to learn, read and develop where they see fit.
Pensions: a 5% employer contribution.
Equipment: choose your own equipment - let us know which tools you need and we'll do our best to get them for you.
Holiday: unlimited holiday (including all UK public holidays) - we trust our staff to take the time they need and still excel in their jobs - and days off for birthdays and moving house are guaranteed!
Flexible working: complete choice over where you work each day.
Regular salary reviews: in line with a salary framework, to ensure equal pay for equal work and that we recognise and reward when your responsibilities increase.
Socials: team socials regularly, chosen by the team.
Team retreats: time to get to know each other away from the office.
Bonus: transparent bonus structure where you can receive a % of base salary based on personal and company performance.
Supporting good causes: we contribute some of our outperformance to charitable causes which the team help choose.
Wellness: time within working hours every week for those that want or need it.
Monthly benefits budget: £50 per month, every month, to spend on whatever you want - from a home delivered vegetable box and discounted gym memberships, to mental health support and professional coaching.
