Vantor Company Culture & Values

How does your culture influence hiring and retention as you grow?

At Vantor, culture is a key driver in attracting and retaining exceptional employees, especially in highly competitive talent markets. As we scale, our culture helps us connect with people who are motivated by purpose-driven work and retain them by clearly linking their contributions to customer and business success. 

Once people join, our culture of ownership, accountability and teamwork reinforces long-term engagement. Employees understand how their work directly supports customer missions and contributes to something bigger than themselves. As a result, our culture continues to strengthen as we grow, enabling us to attract top talent who want to do challenging, meaningful work in an environment where they can truly thrive.

What values or behaviors most define your company culture today?

Our culture is grounded in values that show up in how we work every day. First and foremost is Customer Mission First. We take the time to deeply understand our customers’ missions, deliver results with urgency and celebrate their success as our own. 

We also have a relentless focus on results. We hold ourselves accountable, honor our commitments and move with speed and intention. Integrity is non-negotiable at Vantor. We value the courage to do the right thing, even when it’s difficult. 

Equally important is our belief in collective strength. We invest in one another and know our best work comes from inclusive collaboration. We encourage our teams to think boldly, innovate and fearlessly blaze new trails. And finally, we act like owners. That means taking initiative, continuously improving how we operate and caring deeply about the success of the business and each other. 

What makes these values meaningful is that they aren’t aspirational statements on a wall. They are consistently modeled by leaders and teammates across the organization. 

Can you share an example of how your team recognizes or celebrates one another’s contributions?

Recognition is a core part of how we reinforce our culture at Vantor. One example is our company-wide rewards program called STAR, which stands for Stellar Thanks And Rewards. Employees and leaders regularly use STAR to recognize one another, either through public social recognition or point-based awards. These recognitions are visible across the company, creating shared moments of appreciation that reinforce our values. 

In addition, during our quarterly all-company meetings, our CEO presents peer-nominated awards to individuals and teams who exemplify what it means to live our values. Together, these practices ensure recognition is timely, meaningful and rooted in the behaviors that help our people and our business thrive.
