Inspiration doesn’t work 8 to 5 and neither do we (unless you’d like to of course…). As long as you put in your 8 hours a day, we don’t mind when you start or finish. That means you can put life first, avoiding the traffic, hitting the gym, ferrying kids or catching up on your beauty sleep. Your call.
When you learn, we learn, which is why we actively promote a culture of constant personal development. If it’s a course of study that we prescribe, it’s on us. If there is something else you’d like to pursue and it’s in your line of work, we will come to the party with a generous contribution to your tuition and some time off to study.
Cappuccino, flat white, espresso, macchiato, short, long, black, white, we have it all. As much bean-to-cup coffee as you can drink, guaranteed. Or for those less dependent on caffeine, there’s also tea, milo and hot choc to fuel your day. Oh, did we mention it’s free…?
Fancy a little competition? Join in the weekly soccer match or if you prefer, go digital and challenge your mates on the LAN or canteen PS4. Friday afternoon drinks, social braais and team building events are also a regular treat for the less competitively inclined.
We’re not strict when it comes to what you wear to work.
We want you comfortable, not stuffed into a suit, so by all means, keep it casual.
They say it matters and we agree! All our offices are located in prime locations. The beach, a warm ocean, gym, great restaurants and world-class shopping malls all within 5 min of our Durban Campus.
