Let's re-imagine our work-life balance

From finding our feet as a fledgling business six years ago, we’ve developed our offerings to support our growing team, exploring what they not only need and deserve, but what will bring them joy beyond the (flexible!) working week.

As a B Corp, we advocate for an authentically people and planet focused business, uplifting our team as we would friends or family, and creating a culture that nurtures our professional pursuits, as well as respecting our personal spaces. Being shortlisted for the Best Small Agency to Work For category shines a light on what we see as central to workplace happiness – a balanced, fulfilling, and fair environment that makes space for honest feedback, kindness, and frank but positive conversations.

We like to think of our company “perks” as a series of “offerings” instead of “benefits” – we believe every team member regardless of industry or income should be entitled to fair and joyful additions to how they spend their time at work. Many of our offerings are simply a means of levelling the playing field, with a team-wide £1k cost of living bonus in December last year helping to alleviate some of the external pressures and stressors that can cast shadows over our day-to-day. Curious about what we offer? We’ve put together a brief few favourites below!

We place a value on the correlation between minimal stress, and meaningful work. The Driftime working week has been shaped by this belief, now operating on 34 hours, falling across a flexible four day week.

We encourage our team to take time off, offering unlimited paid holiday to give us all an opportunity to travel slowly, rest consciously, and explore abundantly.

From Brighton to Brazil, our team is far-flung. We remedy our distance with a twice-yearly all-paid getaway to spend time together and reconnect in person in a non-work setting.

Being a finalist for the Best Small Agency to Work For category is a credit to both our founders and our Drifteam, a small but mighty team creating good for people and planet.
