Mental health
It’s no secret that the pandemic propelled the need for mental health support into the spotlight, but for us, it’s always been just as important to look after your mental health as it is your physical health!
We also have certified mental first-aiders, offering global support across the business.
What does this mean?
- Our first-aiders champion mental health initiatives in the office and break the stigma globally across the organization.
- We position mental health as a boardroom issue, on par with physical health.
- We focus on cultivating a psychologically safe environment for all employees.
- Demonstrate how wellbeing has a positive impact on the business.

The team is so supportive, we all get along so well, we all have inside jokes...all this makes the atmosphere here so inviting and genuinely fun."
