There is a constant focus on celebrating the positive
Team Culture We continually strive to create a genuine team culture and camaraderie at Afford. We want to build work relationships that are founded on mateship to drive great customer service. By providing opportunities for staff to get to know each other on a personal level, we can achieve success together. When you join our team, you will instantly get a sense that we’re about more than just a pay packet. We’re an Employer of Choice because we strive to foster a positive, enjoyable and inclusive team culture. We strive for a work environment that achieves excellence for our clients, but one that can still have humour, fun and interesting challenges. We have initiated regular Buzz Nights that are designed to give teams the chance to discuss where our organisation is heading and individual performance, but also enjoy an afternoon or evening out to build camaraderie and a strong team culture between staff members – while having some fun in the process. Buzz Nights take place once a month and teams are given a budget to have a team building night out on us. We believe in providing social opportunities for our staff to enjoy, including staff lunches, nights out, Christmas lunches, various networking opportunities for staff at organisational and service levels and more. We share personal joys of our staff such as milestone birthdays, or the arrival of a new baby. We are a community and together we stand as one team. We attribute much of our success to our focus on our people and creating an enjoyable workplace for all. We’re an Employer of Choice because we listen and truly care. By encouraging a strong sense of team and mateship, we can be sure that no matter what hurdles arise, our teams will work together to ensure the things that matter most to our clients, happen.
