Kia ora,
I’m sorry to hear your concerns about AKQA Wellington and wish you had felt able to discuss these with me or our People & Talent Manager.
We’re committed to being a culturally inclusive company because we believe that is a better company. When our people feel valued and that they belong they are more engaged, more motivated, more collaborative and more innovative. As a female leader, I wholeheartedly believe in embracing a growth mind-set and valuing the perspectives of others. We are all unique and our diverse perspectives are valuable to the team, our clients and the work. The team in Wellington represent people from many cultures and countries around the world, including Indonesia, India, Belgium, UK, USA and the Philippines and our gender balance is 40% female and 60% male.
When it comes to performance and pay reviews, we follow a transparent and regular review cycle based on tenure, ability, track-record and values-alignment. We are also committed to growing our team by providing professional development and mentoring opportunities both from within the AKQA and WPP networks and through external partners.
We accept that we’re a work in progress and aspire to create an inclusive, respectful environment where everyone can do their best work, no matter their discipline.
Ngā mihi mō ngā tau kei mua I te aroaro (Good luck for the future)
Jodi Willocks
Managing Director
