What aspect of Hire Space’s culture keeps you at the company?
The opportunities for career progression. I started off in a very junior role, and now two years later I’m finding myself conducting interviews for that same role! I also know what role I could progress to thanks to our 6 monthly performance and pay reviews, and it’s clear to me what my targets are to achieve that.

What are some unique perks Hire Space offers to its employees?
Super flexible ways of working in terms of both hours e.g. +/- 3 hours GMT and remote/office balance. Where you can choose to be fully remote to everyday in the office and anywhere in between. The way you work is left entirely up to you, I think this one thing that sets hirespace apart, being actually fully flexible on the way each person wants to work.

How do you feel Hire Space supports you as a parent?
They don’t stand in the way of good team members that want to be even better parents. An incredible paternity leave, flexibility in where and when I work, and their genuine eagerness and enthusiasm to grant me time away from the desk with reasons like “to take Lucas swimming for the first time” has meant I haven’t missed a single significant moment in my son's life.

What do you enjoy most about working for Hire Space?
The founders are constantly sense checking with the team on culture, well being and benefits. The are genuinely concerned with the team and what makes them happy, constantly adjusting accordingly. This is done through being open to suggestions, polling the team on what they want , having an external culture guru who checks in often. All enable them to listen and respond, rather than just talking, there is lots of action.

What makes the company culture unique?
Hire Space has a generous, fun-loving and youthful culture. Whilst rare, that’s far from unique, but we have the benefit of in-house events experts and tonnes of collaborators in the venues and events industry that are always looking to improve their relationships with us as a market leader, which means our culture is supplemented by far greater access to incredible and varied experience than I can imagine any other company has.

What traits are necessary for someone to thrive at Hire Space?
Adaptability. We’re a relatively small team and things can change fast. There’s plenty of opportunity to volunteer to help another team out, so that willingness to do something different that might be outside of your job spec is key. You’ve got to be a team player, but also a self starter. Hire Space is really one of those places where you get out what you put in.
