We are committed to making all our offices and factories great places to work. Our employees, known as associates, are given the responsibility to build their own development plans and the freedom to learn and grow. We provide cutting edge, in house training that builds both competence and confidence.

The engagement of our associates is critical - engagement leads to higher morale, motivation and performance, and is the ultimate example of mutuality in the workplace. We run a global associate engagement programme, taking regular feedback from all of our associates on how they are feeling and where we could improve. This is further supported by the importance placed on the role of both the associate and the line manager to take the responsibility to develop and grow.

Our culture also fosters an informal way of working with a small business feel - we have open plan offices and single status facilities that encourage open and honest dialogue throughout Mars. Our business has been built on storytelling and principles, and this clearly lives on through our relaxed style of getting things done.
