Our culture

Fit a culture, not a mould

Let’s be honest, it’s the culture that brings an organisation to life! Thousands of companies are out there that you could choose to build and grow your career with, but the deciding factor will be the environment and the people within it.

Who are Parallel?

The people we have at Parallel (and before you say it, we know, we’re biased) are truly some of the most ambitious, hilarious, and dynamic individuals.

We are proud to be an international team, and break the mould of the traditional “suited and booted” recruitment firm! So whether you love gaming or bottomless brunches, or you want to meditate, or play football, there’s something for everyone at Parallel.

Be part of something

Our culture is built on being professional and experts in our craft, but it’s also built on having fun and enjoying each other’s company. You spend a lot of time at work and building your career, so why not enjoy it and have an amazing experience along the way?

People are happy for you and celebrate your wins!

Diversity & Inclusion

We believe in diversity, inclusion and respect. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Recruitment is for everyone and we want to be a consultancy that is equally led by, influenced by, and built by recruiters who are representative of the cities we are based in – London, New York and Miami.

​​​​​​​We intend to use our position as a top-tier technology recruitment agency to spark conversations about diversity, inclusion and respect, ​​​​​​​proactively sharing our lessons of inclusive recruitment practices as we ourselves work to transform them into reality and action.

Carbon Neutral Promise

We want to give clients the option to choose a recruitment partner who is in line with their sustainability and ESG goals, which is why we reward them with a carbon offsetting scheme.

From an employee perspective, this enables our consultants to offset too! Climate change is real, so it’s up to us as an organisation to ensure that we are contributing positively.

For more information on the specific initiatives we run, please contact us directly as we’d love to discuss them with you.
