Culture is the glue that binds us together. It’s rooted in a shared purpose and a set of meaningful values that put our clients at the heart of everything we do. And it’s key to our success.
Driven by a desire to be the very best at what we do, we recognise that healthy cultures need deliberate and ongoing attention. We welcome people from all walks of life to join our community, share their perspective and help others to feel safe doing the same, because we know our success is thanks to the talented and diverse experience of our people.
We want to foster an environment where every individual feels that they have the opportunity to contribute and do meaningful work. This is vital to our continued success as an organisation. Put simply, our people are our biggest asset.
To keep pace with our own rapid growth in a changing advice landscape we take a shared responsibility to improve and move forward. This means we stay curious, connected and transparent about how we do things, and we see making mistakes as an opportunity to get better, faster.
Everyday, we move together as one to do the right thing for our clients and be a force for good in our industry.
“We’re committed to an ongoing and deliberate focus on our culture. Without this, we risk not delivering on our full potential for clients. The sum of the SJP community is far greater than its individual parts – that’s why we work hard to create the conditions to truly listen, understand – and ultimately, take action.”
Philippa Richards,Head of Culture and Engagement
