Recruitment is a people business and we put the creation of valuable, lasting relationships at the top of our priorities. We want to help people fulfil their potential and be all that they can be.

People and Culture

At Hays, we believe that people and culture are the foundation of every successful company. Both play a significant and equally important role in how a business performs and in its ultimate success.

Within Hays, we take pride in our high performance culture and reward on the merit of your achievements and contributions. We strive in developing the careers of our employees and providing an opportunity for personal growth is our top priority – we offer clearly defined career paths and timelines to ensure our employees understand how to continue moving forward in the business - for example, as a People Manager responsible for coaching and managing their own team, or as a Business Manager responsible for candidate or client relationships. Many of our employees go on to start new parts of the business, transfer to new offices, and take on challenges that they never expected when they joined Hays.

Our People and Culture team plays a crucial role in supporting the on-going development of our employees on both a local and national scale all to ensure that you have the tools and resources you need to be your absolute best – from attraction strategies, to people policies, to the way we train, to our dedication and focus on diversity and inclusion.

We firmly believe in the power of diversity at work and promote an environment you can flourish on the strength of your abilities alone. By continuing to work closely with the businesses and supporting its key objectives, our People & Culture teams are working to achieve our ultimate goal – to be the best recruitment business in the world, for our clients, our candidates and our employees.
