At Answer, we believe that by having a team of great people, we can deliver exceptional results for our clients. Plus, with benefits like tax-free bonus opportunities, regular social events and enhanced pension contributions, there’s a lot to like about joining our team.
Don’t have a background in tech? Want to retrain or return to work?
Not only does our Academy support people starting their careers, but we also support people retraining.
As long as you’ve got a passion for technology and share our values, we’d love to hear from you!
There’s a lot to like about being a member of the Answer team.
In 2020, we made the bold decision to become an Employee Owned organisation, as a statement to our people about our commitment and investment to them. Our people own the majority of the business, giving them a vested interest in our success and helping us shape the future of Answer, and after a year with the business, you will be included in that majority. Another benefit of being employee owned, is a twice yearly tax-free bonus scheme as long as targets are met, which we are yet to miss.
We encourage people to take control of their own career progression and we provide all the support they need to grow. You will partner with a dedicated Career Guide, who will support your career progression - with the opportunity for promotion in any of our company quarterlies (not just once a year!) We want you to pursue a career that gets you excited to come to work every day.
Our hybrid working approach puts people first. We recognise the value of working from home, creating spaces to collaborate with peers in our office and time to engage with our clients. You can vary your working, when and where you work, to allow you to collaborate better, feed your creativity, and take the time and space to focus when you need to.
We pride ourselves on having an inclusive social culture - it’s not just after work drinks! Games nights, Quiz nights, GoApe, 5 Aside Football, Escape Rooms, Axe Throwing, Coffee & Cake Club (if there isn’t a club for you, we have an Events Committee to help you start one!) We host regular “Lunch and learns” for people to share ideas and socialise more informally during work too.
At Answer we strive to build a culture that is diverse, inclusive and underpinned by our values. We want people to bring their full selves to work, to be confident, creative and empowered to take risks. We know how important work-life balance is. We encourage and support our people to pursue their interests and hobbies - we’ll likely have a club for it at Answer and if not, let’s create one!
We offer a host of other benefits, including a great pension scheme, twice a year tax free bonus scheme, industry leading referral scheme, free social events where partners are invited, cycle-to-work and electric car schemes, to name a few.
