Our culture
We believe the strength of our culture is a source of competitive advantage, ensuring a healthy environment for debate and exchange of views. This is the foundation for our pursuit of enduring investment performance and outstanding client service. Above all, our culture embodies our overriding value – to do the right thing.
Freedom to create
Every person’s freedom to create is a defining element of the philosophy which drives our strong culture.
Our people perform best when they are liberated to pursue their passions and interests. We strive to give people the freedom to express their strengths, skills and talents. Freedom to create is a crucial driver of diversity in our business as it is only through the expression of individuality and one’s potential that we can be truly diverse.
Results and relationships
If freedom to create sits at the core of our culture, valuing strong relationships encircles that core.
Strong relationships breed diversity in our business and an environment where all people feel welcome, respected and know they have a fair opportunity to develop and contribute. We expect people to perform both on the results they deliver and the quality of their relationships. These are important measures of our culture.
We believe in recognising individual talents, strengths and ambitions, and look for individuals who are highly curious and self-motivated. We support our people to reach their full potential by encouraging a culture of ownership and responsibility. We look for people that are energetic and optimistic, who can deliver excellence by working collaboratively.
