Our business was founded on the principle of balancing people and planet with profit, whilst delivering great creative work for our clients. Last year, our teams delivered projects in 20 countries, across 4 continents with a 100% success rate.
While our business achievements make us happy, our real victory lies in establishing a positive company culture - where employee happiness is valued as much as their performance, and where flexible working and employee mental wellbeing takes centre stage.

Being entrepreneurial is a mindset. Entrepreneurs think and act differently. We expect the unexpected and we like to be surprised. For us, to be entrepreneurial means to be able to share ideas freely and fearlessly - even acknowledging so-called failures as learning and growing experiences. We encourage and expect entrepreneurial thinking at all levels of our team and seek to collaborate internally and externally to pinpoint the most exciting new future opportunities.
We believe in being humble. No hierarchies. No egos. No tantrums. In business, we believe that people buy people and we advocate human-to-human communication and values at all times. Our clients always say we’re great to work with and that we go the extra mile. We also care deeply about making the world a better place. Internally, we take great care of our team and invest in finding new team-members that share our beliefs. We’ve been named as one of the UK’s ‘Best Places to Work’.
Thinking comes before doing. Whether it’s the design of a 3D environment, the flawless planning and delivery of an event or the creation of an unforgettable brand experience, we start by cross-fertilising ideas from our different disciplines and personal networks. We balance strategy with creativity and commerciality. The end result is projects of the highest aesthetic quality that function brilliantly and are delivered with exceptional levels of service, measured to ensure expectations are always met or exceeded.
The best source of project knowledge is our clients themselves. We also understand it’s not always easy for clients to articulate exactly what they require from their design partner. We have the tools to discover what is relevant and necessary to know from our clients and we combine this with our own research, knowledge and insights. We share findings and facilitate further brainstorms and that way we always nail the brief. The best minds need to work together towards the same goal.
Our internal awards known as the ‘EPICs’ reward employees who have truly lived and breathed our values.
The EPICs epitomise our values illustrated above. The EPIC awards take place annually to recognise an individual or team’s efforts during the year. The Annual Winner is nominated by employees and the leadership team for the culmination of their work. They are rewarded with the equivalent of a £1,000 prize and a plaque on the EPICs Hall of Fame wall.
An EPIC is the highest honour bestowed on an employee.
Congratulations to Alice Tapson, Design Development Manager, Ignition - winner of the 2023 EPIC’s.
Working from home has always been a part of our flexible work policy. We usually work 3 days from home and 2 days in the office. Exceptions apply to staff members living outside a 50 mile radius from the office.
Full time employees get 25 days holiday (excluding Bank Holidays). In addition, we offer 1 input/knowledge day - to attend a conference/continuing education, 1 charity day - to support a charity of your choosing, and 3 personal days - to be used as you see fit, e.g. taking your pet to the vet or moving house. Annual holiday allowance is therefore 30 days, plus 8 Bank holidays, totalling 38 days’ holiday per year. After 4 years of service, you accrue 1 extra day per year, up to a total holiday allowance of 30 days.
Istoria Group offers flexi hours for all staff. For example, if you want to go to the gym before work or pick your children up from school, you can flex your working hours to suit your lifestyle.
Istoria Group offers a company-wide bonus scheme and spot awards through management.
We value our teams’ happiness and have mental health first aiders on board. Our future plans include a monthly Wellbeing Lab that cover topics from men’s mental health to menopause.
Our social committee organises team building exercises, company parties twice per year, as well as cultural days/evenings out.
We are always looking for exceptional people of any discipline to join our teams.
Our Positive Working Policy shows our employees that we care and value their hard work. As a result, our staff stay with us longer and feel valued, which in turn makes our clients happy.
We are an equal opportunities employer. This means we do not discriminate against any employee or job applicant because of age, sex, race, physical or mental disability, pregnancy, marital status, sexual orientation, gender reassignment or religious background. In fact, we actively seek out diversity candidates to join our business.
