  • Initiative to proactively identify opportunities and solve challenges.

  • Curiosity, flexibility, and a strong sense of accountability.

  • A focus on soft skills, including passion, enterprise, and self-motivation.

What we offer you

We consider geographical location, experience, and performance in shaping compensation worldwide.

We revisit compensation annually (and more often for graduates and associates) to ensure we recognise outstanding performance.

In addition to base pay, we offer a performance-driven annual bonus.

We provide all team members with additional benefits, which reflect our values and ideals.

We balance our programs to meet local needs and ensure fairness globally.
