# Culture

Life at a UK four-day week company: fully remote, 32 hours over four days, flexible hours and a 6-year average staff tenure. See why it matters to clients.

Culture

## A team that genuinely loves what we do

## A four-day week, flexible hours and a proper work-life balance are built into how we operate

Our team couldn’t be happier with our work culture, but what does this mean for our clients? Well, in practice, a team that avoids getting burnt out is a team that stays, and low turnover means the people who learned your business when you signed up tend to be the ones still working on it months and years later. Continuity is worth more than availability.

- 18 Full-time, senior employees
- 20 Live client projects
- 5 Years average client retention
- 6 Years average staff tenure

Why Choose Us

## Work that fits around life, not the other way round.

## Built Around Search. Measured on Revenue.

### “Work-life balance” isn't a slogan here, it's built into how the week is structured

It shows up in the small, unglamorous things more than any policy statement, when meetings get scheduled, how workloads get planned, what happens if you need to step away mid-afternoon. None of it's revolutionary, we just take it seriously enough to build it into how the week actually runs

- Four-day week, 32 hours
- Work from anywhere, no fixed desk or commute
- Flexible hours
- A weekly 1-2-1 with your manager
- Planned workloads
- Bi-annual team social events

#### Open to new ideas

Think you can improve a process or a deliverable? Say so. We actively want the team pushing on how we work, not just delivering it

#### Open door with leadership

Leadership isn't behind layers of management. If something needs raising, you raise it directly.

#### Open about what's expected

You'll know exactly what's expected of you from day one, not left to work it out as you go.

### Open, By Design

### We're simultaneously remote and (occasionally) together

We make a point of meeting up as a company from time to time to celebrate our successes and reflect on what we've achieved together.

We try our best to make every gathering genuinely valuable and as far from 'forced workplace fun' as possible.

### Trusted from day one

Given a level of trust most agencies save for senior hires. No one here is waiting to be told what to do next.

### Room to grow, not just stay

Several of our team leads started in junior roles and worked their way up here, rather than having to leave to find the next step.

### Open about how the business is doing

We don't sit on news, good or bad. The team hears about performance and decisions directly, not secondhand or after the fact.

### A team that's earned its reputation

Everyone here has a track record before they join. We hire for proven ability, so you're working alongside people who already know what they're doing.

### A genuinely global team

The team spans cities, countries and time zones. Going remote-first was a deliberate structural choice, made because it let us hire the best people regardless of postcode.

Our Approach

## Focused work, relaxed people

Nobody does their best work when they’re on edge. High standards and a relaxed atmosphere aren’t opposites. They’re how we get the best from the team.

## Find Your Next Job At Marketing Signals

We're always looking for people who fit how we work, not just what's on their CV. If flexible hours, genuine autonomy and work you can actually be proud of sounds like your kind of place, we'd love to hear from you.

What our team says about working here…

## Our move to a four-day week has people talking

Moving to a four-day week attracted more questions than we expected, most of them variations on the same one: does the work still get done? Here's what we've said about it.
