  • Flexibility: Setting boundaries and having a work schedule is important. But occasionally this position will require flexibility in terms of working hours to ensure we exceed clients expectations.
  • Embrace relationships with the team: Building strong relationships with clients is critical. But as a manager you focus first and foremost on building genuine relationships with your team because your teams output is your output.
  • Its okay to be wrong: We are building a company and we are pursuing a unique path. We will make mistakes, learn from them and move on. Making mistakes shows that you take risks (within boundaries). We love that.

How We Work - The Core Values We Live By
