About The Company Are we right for you?
We expect a lot but well give a lot to get the right people. There are 4 main things we look for
We want people with bags of character. We dont want you to hide your personality when youre at work, we want you to feel comfortable, to be who you are.
We want people people. You've got to like being around others, smiling and chatting because you like people, not because someone told you to smile and chat.
