 In your opinion, what is “what working at ADLIB” all about?

Working at ADLIB is great and unmatched to any other company I have worked for! The company culture, the people and office vibes make it a great place to be! It is so lovely to have some many colleagues that are like minded and always look out for you. We have a lot of socials, so everyone always feels included and part of the company whether they come into the office every day or work fully remote.

What does being a part of a B Corp mean to you?

Working for the highest scoring B Corp Recruitment Company in the World means a lot to me and has driven my mission to work with sustainability focused companies looking to reduce plastic waste, create alternative recycling technologies and novel biomaterials that will have a positive impact on the World.

What is your favourite thing about the culture at ADLIB?

I love the friendly and relaxed atmosphere at ADLIB which is typically uncommon within recruitment companies but really has helped shape the way we work with clients and candidates. I really like the freedom we have through policies such as unpaid leave, sabticals and also socials that are hosted monthly which makes us feel much more than just colleagues.
