Culture & values

Discover what drives the people behind Workspace

We believe that a culture articulated through a clear set of values creates a common feeling of identity and direction, motivating staff and enhancing performance. 

It’s this dynamic and diverse culture, which focuses on customer experience, that helps attract and retain people who align with our clear set of values (see below) and have a broad range of skills, experience and backgrounds.

Our annual employee survey gauges staff engagement and satisfaction, more recently highlighting the importance of wellbeing. We have run a series of wellbeing webinars for employees and are launching a full programme of events for the coming year.

OUR VALUES

Our four values set out the common behaviours that support our purpose and bring Workspace’s strategy to life:

Find a way

We look for those who are persistent and have the confidence to move things forward even when it is difficult. Flexibility, focus and determination are key.

Know your stuff

We like people who are serious about their subject; those who are open-minded, interested and ask questions.

Show we care

We value great social skills and those who instinctively building strong relationships. We think hard about how to give back to our communities.

Make It Fun

We depend on the creativity and imagination of all our people. We like those who thrive on fresh, colourful and quirky thinking.

OUR EVENTS

WORKSPACE WINNERS Awards

Following employee feedback around recognising and rewarding achievements internally, we introduced quarterly employee awards.

The Workspace Winners, reinforce our positive culture and recognise excellence at both site and head office level.

Employees nominate colleagues who have demonstrably lived our values, and a judging panel chooses four winners per quarter.

Each winner is celebrated with intranet case studies outlining their positive impact on the business, as well as
receiving a trophy, a £150 prize, and an all-expenses-paid dinner with the CEO at the end of the year.

Behind the scenes at Workspace

In 2020, more than 70 of the Workspace team walked a marathon along the River Thames to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital, raising £20,000. 

Our Development Manager Sam Palmes completed a gruelling 210-mile bike ride in aid of NHS Heroes, raising £50,000 for NHS frontline staff.

Our popular 'walking webinars' encourage staff to plug in their headphone, go outside and listen to experts from our wellbeing partners, Outliers.

To celebrate our new brand campaign, #WFW, we launched a staff competition to find the best photos of our advertising - including buses, tubes and billboards.
