Our values

Working together

Our real value is found in our brilliant people. We work together, sharing ideas and supporting each other - leaders and team members alike. We respect and believe in each other as well as in our clients

Be better

Success is great, but continuous improvement keeps job satisfaction and motivation high. We invest in development opportunities and we encourage promotion from within, because we want everyone who works for us to be the best they can be.

Be innovative

We understand our employees want to make an impact in the world, in work, in the way we do things. We encourage innovation and ideas from everyone, because we take our team members seriously, and we always give credit where it’s due.

Do the right thing

Community is the backbone of our business. We’re committed to social responsibility, sustaining the environment, diversity & inclusion.

Trust each other

Trusted colleagues are empowered, independent individuals. Our work is fast-paced and full on, but we support our people to look after our clients because we’re all here to make a difference.

Our employee promise

We’re in the business of relationships. We’re just as invested in stories and people as we are facts and figures. That’s what makes us stand out from the crowd.

Our partnerships with clients are based on their ambitions. Our focus is to get to the heart of who they really are and the difference we can make. From rising stars to well-established businesses, our clients mean the world to us, because our investment means the world to them.

We know real value lies in real people, and it takes a motivated mindset and can-do attitude to belong here. It can be fast-paced and full-on but we can handle it. We’re a collective of ‘got your back’. We collaborate together, take ownership when we need to and deliver for our clients every time. That way, everybody wins.

In return we’re all empowered to get the job done because we’re trusted to get it right. It’s why we were hired in the first place. We want you to make the choices you believe in – we’ll believe in them too.

There’s no place quite like BFS and we’re proud of that. And it’s all down to you - thanks to you, every ambitious business wants to work with us.
