Our Team
While this could be part of the other two categories under this section we place such emphasis in our people and the value of team working in our firm that we believe it is too “big” as a factor to fit in to any other chapter of our corporate life.
In fact we all feel and act as members of the same team, where the words “employees” or “staff”, more appropriate to a contractual or enforcement relationship, have no place in Seamark.
We fully share the idea that a good company offers its people a career and not just a job. People today are using value judgments, not just arithmetic, as they make their career choice. The deciding factor for them is to be with a company they feel proud to be part of, a company that does good, not just a good company.
Since our inception, more than 15 years ago, we have set some principles with regards to our people, which we feel are appropriate and commensurate to the fact that the workforce is for a professional services firm its more important asset. These principles are summarised below:
