Working at StrategiQ means joining a group of passionate, dedicated and visionary people; a melting-pot of personalities, skill sets and specialisms.
“StrategiQ isn’t just a place of work – it’s a life coach. We go way beyond quality of work to help each other become better people, through leadership, standards and a focus on well-being. I have achieved more in my personal life in my time at StrategiQ.”
Poppy
Marketing Manager
Let’s face it, nobody wants to feel like they aren’t being fairly compensated for the work they do. You should expect to receive fair and competitive compensation for the skills, experience and value you bring to the company.
We commit to conducting regular pay reviews to ensure that we are offering competitive and fair compensation to our employees. Quarterly one-to-ones will take place to allow you the opportunity to receive feedback on your performance and contributions to the company. As well as performance, we’ll also take into account additional factors such as market trends, the company’s financial situation and the overall compensation package offered to employees.
We believe there should be complete transparency when it comes to the salary bracket for each role and specialism, so we will always communicate the starting salary and the top salary that you can expect to earn. We want to provide complete visibility over what your financial opportunities are as your career progresses and your role evolves within the company.
We want to be able to provide financial support when you need it the most. We are pleased to announce that as part of our commitment to our employees wellbeing, we are enhancing our sick pay policy. We will now pay you up to 3 months of sick pay in full; meaning that if you are unable to work due to illness or injury, you can expect to receive your full salary for up to 3 months. To be eligible, you must meet certain criteria, the details of which can be found in our staff handbook.
Similar to the Death in Service benefit, we hope we never have to claim on this. However, should you be diagnosed with a defined critical illness, then you will receive a fixed tax-free lump sum of £25,000 to help you cover bills and illness-related expenses.
Nobody likes to think about the ‘D’ word, but we’d all want to know our loved ones were taken care of if anything ever happened to us. Our Death in Service benefit covers all employees in the unlikely event of death, and will pay out 4x your annual salary, tax-free, to your nominated beneficiary.
Through our salary sacrifice providers, you will be able to access a range of options such as childcare vouchers or Cycle to Work scheme, both of which offer great tax savings to take advantage of.
Family is everything to us, and we want to make sure that when that special time comes, you are able to take the time you need to be with your little ones. We are therefore enhancing our maternity package to offer 12 weeks full pay if you’ve been with us for 1 to 3 years, or 16 weeks full pay if you’ve been with us for 3 years or over. We hope this additional financial support will provide some peace of mind when you want to be focusing on what matters the most.
In our opinion, the statutory allowance just doesn’t cut it, so we will pay 2 weeks in full when you go on paternity leave.
We know that in order to achieve our goals as a company and maintain a profitable business with happy and engaged staff, we have to create an environment and culture that is designed to support the learning, growth and wellbeing of each individual. We recognise that a career is an ever-evolving journey and not a fixed destination, and we want to be able to facilitate that by providing a dynamic environment where nobody feels stagnant in their progress or development.
In recent years, the benefits of hybrid working have become more and more apparent, which is why we’re now offering employees the opportunity to work from the office, from their home or wherever they feel most comfortable and inspired to do their best work. The company will provide every employee with the necessary tools, technology and equipment to enable remote working and the ability to collaborate with the rest of the team seamlessly.
We believe motivation is at the heart of everything we do, and we recognise that everyone is motivated by different things. In order to best support the unique motivators of every member of the team, we use a comprehensive motivational mapping tool, known as Mojo, to dial into what personally motivates each individual and where/why their motivation may be lacking. This enables managers and mentors to support the members of their team by making tailored adjustments, setting relevant goals and fostering healthy communication around their satisfaction at work.
In order to ensure that every member of the team feels supported and mentored, you’ll be given monthly one-to-ones with your line manager, as well as PDPs every 3 months. These sessions will give you the opportunity to raise any questions or concerns, as well as discuss your role & performance, your goals inside and outside of work, and future plans for your career.
We provide a free gym membership at our Suffolk studio so that local employees, or team members visiting from elsewhere, can access the gym during their lunch breaks, or before and after work. The gym is located in the unit next door and offers modern facilities and exclusive classes for StrategiQ employees from trained fitness instructors.
We recognise that work is only one aspect of our employees’ lives, and that social connection and community are also important for a happy, balanced and fulfilling life. That’s why we are committed to fostering a culture that promotes community, social interaction and kinship among our team members. We actively encourage and create opportunities for all of our employees to get involved in social activities and events both within the agency and in the wider community.
If there’s one day that you should be able to kick back and do whatever you want, it’s your birthday! From now on, you’ll be able to book your birthday off as an additional day’s leave as a little ‘happy birthday’ from us.
If 6 weeks annual leave is not enough for the things you have planned – perhaps you have a special extended trip in mind, or an exciting list of travel goals – then you now have the option to buy up to 2 weeks additional leave per year. Please note: this will be subject to the needs of the business.
We always strive to have a variety of social events on offer, all of which are totally optional! These events take place regularly throughout the year and are inspired by the suggestions and ideas given to us by the rest of the team. We aim to organise events to suit all tastes and interests, and hope you’ll always find something you enjoy and want to join in with.
We want to ensure that we’re always doing our part for charity, and as we continue to support existing charities, as well as welcome new ones, you’ll have the chance to get involved and help raise funds for these amazing causes. From the 3 Peaks Challenge, to Inspire Suffolk’s ‘We’re a Knockout’ obstacle course, these events always offer you the opportunity to have a bit of fun while doing something incredibly rewarding.
Let’s be honest, there’s simply no better day than the final day of the working week. To boost that #FridayFeeling and get you winding down for the weekend, we’ll be bringing in fish and chips to enjoy as a team on Friday lunchtimes, before shutting those laptops down for a 4pm finish.
We understand the importance of a healthy work-life balance, as well as the value of personal growth and development, which is why the company offers sabbaticals. These are extended periods of time off work that allow you to pursue personal and professional goals such as travelling, studying or volunteering. An opportunity to recharge your batteries, learn new skills, and gain a fresh perspective that can benefit you in every area of your life.
While we’re proud to be known for our award-winning work, we feel it’s just as important to be recognised for the part we play in creating an inclusive environment for our staff, as well as the efforts we make to give back to the wider community and impact positive change.
Our aim is to be the agency that provides the very best environment for everyone to thrive, as we know that a diverse workforce brings unique perspectives, viewpoints and talents into the business. We are therefore committed to creating a culture where people from all backgrounds feel welcome and included.
We’ve always felt strongly about supporting our roots and providing opportunities for up-and-coming talent, and we’ve recently introduced work experience placements to give young people the chance to immerse themselves into agency life and the marketing world. As well as holding talks and workshops for local education providers, we’ve also had a long-standing vision to create our very own StrategiQ Academy; offering apprenticeship placements to ambitious young individuals and nurturing the next generation of marketing masterminds.
We make a sincere and dedicated commitment to upholding the highest principles of fairness and respect, and protecting all employees from discrimination or inequality in our workplace. We have invested in senior management training to identify and combat any inequality or unconscious bias if/where it exists within the agency, and will continue to prioritise awareness around how to make the agency as inclusive as possible.
We all have a responsibility to reduce our carbon footprint, and we are mindful about the decisions we make to limit our environmental impact. For example, we use technology wherever possible to save travelling time and costs for staff, and will opt for video calls, where appropriate, in lieu of in-person meetings.
