MVF Employee Perspectives
Describe MVF’s company culture in one word. What made you pick that word?
“Un-egotistical.” It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been at the company for, or at what level. If you have an idea to change and improve things, you’ll be listened to and have the freedom to make that change. There are no egos getting in the way of positive change
For example, in the paid marketing team, there is full control over their performance marketing campaigns. They get to own the ideation and execution. They do not need sign-off from a client, or a more senior employee. As long as their concepts abide by platform policy, they have freedom to craft their own strategy, which significantly accelerates the team’s learning and development.
How long have you been with MVF, and what professional growth or development have you seen in that time?
I joined in September 2014, so it’s been just over 10 years. A long time to stay at one company for, but I’ve chosen MVF as my long-term stay because of the progression, culture and impact I can make at this company. I joined straight out of University, and have been able to progress to the senior leadership team at MVF over that time.
MVF does an excellent job training and developing their own talent, which I’ve been able to benefit from over the years. This has all helped me to learn new skills, challenge myself and take on new and exciting projects throughout the 10 years I’ve been at the company. If you’re looking for a company that recognizes hard work and develops their talent, this is the place to be.
