We believe our people deserve the best
Beliefs are more than words on a page. Our people matter to us. Here are some of the ways we try to challenge, inspire and support each other:
Flexible working: Our focus is on recruiting the best people for the job, regardless of geography. We were early adopters of flexible working and embraced remote working
Generous holiday allowance: We give all employees five weeks’ holiday and additional time between Christmas and New Year when we close the office
Private healthcare: Everyone employed by RSAcademics benefits from a comprehensive private health insurance package
Financial thank-yous: We share our success with our employees. When the company performs well, colleagues receive a thank-you payment
Inclusive culture: We nurture a culture that fosters a sense of belonging for all our colleagues
Supporting colleagues’ fundraising: We have a dedicated pot of money which we use to support any colleague’s personal fundraising efforts, whatever the cause
Commitment to training and development: Regular training to ensure we keep abreast of the latest developments and bring best practice techniques and approaches to our clients
A sense of fun and (sometimes) indulgence: Specially sourced treats posted to colleagues simply to say ‘thank you’, an annual summer charity walk, Christmas jumper competitions, barbeques, quiz nights and other fun events
Company events: To encourage collaboration and share best practice
- Annual company conference – Usually held in an inspiring London venue such as Lambeth Palace, focussing on updates on the year gone, direction for the year ahead, workshops and time together in person (important when we are spread around the globe), a lovely repast and an evening social for those who want to carry on the conversations over drinks and nibbles.
- Virtual company catch-ups – boil the kettle, grab a Kit-Kat and settle in for an interesting theme and speaker and a catch-up with colleagues.
- Regular team meetings – In person at a central venue to discuss challenges and ideas and to plan for the future.
