VALUES

Our values aim to pinpoint the magic ingredients for us at our best. We look for people who share our values and can add to our culture.

? See Challenge as Opportunity

... is about our attitude and to be very clear, this is not a value of optimism, nor is it about loving every challenge.

? Say It Simply

... is how we communicate. Think of the basic rules of communication - honest, clear, confident.

? Do What You Say

... is the crux of our reputation and longevity. When you join Born Social, our trust is fully given. It is yours to lose.

? Make Each Other Better

... is about our culture of collaboration and commitment to development. We are only as good as the people around us so we all take responsibility for developing each other, as well as ourselves.

? Consciously Contribute

...is bigger than all the others. It ensures we grow right. It broadens our focus beyond Born Social and cements our commitment to doing what's just, not what's easy or immediately self-serving.

EVERYONE'S WELCOME

We celebrate different ideas, perspectives, and backgrounds here at Born Social. As an equal opportunities employer, we believe in the power of an inclusive and representative team. We welcome applications regardless of race, religion or belief, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, political affiliation, family, or parental status. We don't simply comply with the Equality Act, we go further and take pride in building a stronger and more creative work environment, committed to inclusion, diversity, and representation.
