Our culture

Our vision is a world transformed, in which Circular Living is commonplace. Where the systems that provide our everyday goods contribute to the world's prosperity and sustainability instead of reducing it.

How we work together to achieve this vision is defined in our Culture Compass, which sets out how we can be more accountable, agile, bold, commercial, globally minded and impact focussed in our day-to-day activities and ways of working to grow our impact.

We're committed to a culture that encourages and enables you to bring your best self to work, with just enough commonality to ensure our efforts are steering us all in the same direction. 

The Compass is just that – an aid to point us all in the same direction, helping everyone that joins us to navigate the WRAP way.  

Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion in action

We’re proud of who we were and who we have become. Over the last few years, we’ve been working towards creating a truly inclusive and diverse culture – but we also understand it’s a journey and not a destination.

We’re not looking for people to fit in, we’re looking for people to stand out; to shine. We embrace difference, and we celebrate it.

“WRAP is by far the most inclusive place I have worked.” [WRAP colleague]

Hybrid working: making it work for you

The working landscape has changed over the past few years, and we’ve adapted how we work and why we work the way we do.

We mix working from home and working from an office, because we understand that to drive change and truly make a difference, sometimes you will want to come together to collaborate, but other times you’ll want to work from home.

We do have a few rules though – but good ones.

  1. We don’t like to do meetings between 12.30 and 14:00 (GMT). Instead, we encourage people to use their lunch break to take a walk, exercise or just have a well-earned break.
  2. We don’t believe in a culture of presenteeism. Instead, we value productivity.
  3. In line with our values, we encourage teams to come together in person once a month, but we’ll always make our meetings available online too for those occasions when you can’t make it.
  4. We have flexible core hours so we can offer our partners and colleagues consistency.
  5. There will be times when you’ll be required to attend an office – for collaboration or colleague events. But you’ll be given notice and can discuss attendance with your line manager.
