Time with Insight: Since 2014

What makes you proud to work here? There are a number of factors that make me proud to work at Insight.

Our culture: Insight is a business that puts clients first in any decision that it takes. Doing what's right for our clients drives every conversation internally. This really offers clarity in the ultimate objective that we’re all working towards as a team and influences our priorities and focus in any initiatives that we work on.

Our vision: We're ambitious when it comes to the growth of the business; and this flows from our top strategic corporate objectives down to our department and teams' more targeted objectives. What we're working towards collectively is therefore clear and measurable. This clarity allows us to measure our progress regularly and helps us course-correct when needed.

Clarity of our contribution: At all levels, we encourage accountability for the work that we do, and as such our contribution as team members to the firm's strategic objectives are clear. This creates a sense of achievement that drives our daily productivity, ownership of our work and our ambition year on year.

Our people: We're fortunate to be working with colleagues that are leaders in their field, with a high level of expertise in their subject matter. This is incredibly enriching in itself and is further reinforced by Insight's strong top-down view that egos and silo working are not tolerated. Taking a team approach to everything that we do is core to our day to day.

Our leadership: Insight is at a size where employees are not just numbers on the payroll, we are valued contributors to the firm's success. A lot of similarly sized employers describe themselves as flat structured, but the way this is implemented at Insight is different in my view. Our Executive Management Committee (EMC) members have an open-door policy which makes them accessible to all employees, regardless of seniority levels. Similarly, EMC members, including Insight's CEO, will regularly be in attendance on a number of our team meetings. This offers employees a level of visibility that is quite unique to Insight in my view.

What makes Insight a different place to work? Several points mentioned above make Insight, from my perspective, a different place to work at. Of particular note is the strength of our culture and how the rest of the factors, namely a clear vision, team approach, accountability, and access, interact together to create a pleasant work environment that rewards ambition and drives growth, collaboration, execution excellence and a client centric outcome-oriented approach to working.
