Also Sourcing Digital Pros in APAC. AS A KEY ELEMENT OF SALT OUR APAC OPERATION “SODIUM” OPENED IN JANUARY 2014 WITH HEADQUARTERS IN SYDNEY. Australia is not only about sun, beaches and surfing. With a constantly growing job market, its digital sector is especially thriving, e.g. a predicted 4.4 million jobs will be dedicated to Big Data by 2015. As companies increasingly view APAC as a place to expand in, we are excited to be taking our brand global. Sodium’s mission is to replicate the success of Salt in APAC by bringing recruitment innovation and thought leadership to emerging and transforming markets across brands, agencies, consultancies and vendors looking to lead the way in the digital revolution. Salt’s values will run true in all that Sodium do and we will also be working hard to install the awareness around Diversity & Inclusion within recruitment and technology driven businesses.
Located in the MLC Centre in the buzzing city centre overlooking the Harbour Bridge and Opera House, our APAC operation sources Digital and Technology professionals. We have hired Tiarne Hawkins as a Director to lead this operation. Tiarne has expertise across sales and marketing (exec search and permanent hires) having worked with leading digital vendors and agencies across analytics, social, ecommerce and mobile. As we make a success of Sodium we would be delighted to have you on board. Whether you are in the market for some top talent; searching for your next opportunity in APAC; looking to co-host a digital event for candidate attraction or PR; or create diversity awareness within your organisation – we are on hand to create successful partnerships.
Elliot Dell, Director at Salt explains that there are many reasons behind choosing to open our Sodium office in Sydney. ‘The forecasting spend especially in big data together with a lot of our clients’ headquarters for APAC being based in Sydney made Sydney an obvious choice. Also, the Australian culture suits our brand and I believe that it is a place where Sodium can become successful and recognised.’ Paul Annis, Director at Salt, is also very positive about the partnership and states that the Sodium Office, which launched in January 2014 is the next step for Salt. ‘APAC is very important for us because the digital market is very progressive and there is an appetite in it. There are also some great candidates and we will be able to offer the organisations our niche services on a more global scale’

Our Values AT SALT, WE UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF CONSISTENT PROFESSIONALISM AND SUCCESS. WE HAVE DEVELOPED A SET OF CORE BRAND VALUES THAT WE APPLY TO EVERYTHING WE DO AND THAT WE INSTIL IN EVERY MEMBER OF OUR TEAM. WE RUN EVERY ASPECT OF OUR BUSINESS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE VALUES, SO OUR CLIENTS CAN ALWAYS EXPECT NOTHING SHORT OF EXCELLENCE.
HOLISTIC We are holistic in our approach to recruitment and holistic in the way we work together as a team. We understand that as a whole we are greater than any individual and that everyone’s opinion is valid and important. We collaborate, share knowledge, share candidates and help each other with no strings attached. We know that when every member of the team is working for the benefit of the whole team, we all win, and so do our clients.
DYNAMIC We work in a dynamic sector, are dynamic as individuals and must be dynamic as an organisation. We strive to create a fun, energetic workplace where negative behaviour and personal politics have no place. We don’t bring our problems to work and we celebrate our successes openly, with the aim that everyone who encounters the Salt brand, as a client, a candidate or a member of the team senses our positive, dynamic attitude.
COMMERCIAL We know that time is money for our clients and for ourselves and we know the value of providing an efficient service. We think highly of ourselves and act to ensure that opinion is deserved. We compete on the basis of quality rather than price and know how to walk away from business that won’t be mutually beneficial. We innovate, think long-term and aim to be advisors to our clients, not just service providers.
INTELLIGENT We specialise, research, ask questions and stay engaged. We immerse ourselves in our specialist verticals and stay on top of the latest developments weekly, daily, hourly. We network not just to gain contacts but to gain information. We have an objective for every call that we make and ensure that objective is met. We think big, think strategically and think insightfully: there’s no shame in not knowing an answer once, there is in not finding out for the next time.
PROFESSIONAL We manage expectations both internally and externally and always take responsibility for our actions. We never shy away from difficult conversations and always deliver on the promises we make. We consider carefully how we want to be presented as individuals and as a business and act accordingly. We give honest and constructive feedback to our team and our clients and we always stand by what we have said.
Salt / +44 (0) 20 7928 2525 / www.welovesalt.com
We Love Diversity AT SALT WE ARE COMMITTED TO THE PURSUIT OF ENSURING DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION. ELEVATING THE CORPORATE STATUS OF WOMEN, LGBT, B.A.M.E AND DISABLED INDIVIDUALS IS AN AVID MISSION FOR US. Diversity is imperative to the majority of our clients’ internal strategy and L&D initiatives, hence we believe that it is important to understand their innate needs before resourcing for their roles. By building trust and long-standing relationships, our extensive network of diverse talent continuously grows through recommendation and referral.
THE BUSINESS CASE FOR DIVERSITY Europe can expect a shortfall of 24 million people active in the workplace by 2040. If the rate of women active in the workplace reached that of men, then this shortfall would only be 3 million (McKinsey & Co). Women are the driving force behind more than 70% of household purchases (Catalyst 2009). Women and BAME are more likely to be hired in organisations who take proactive action including unconscious bias training (Opportunity Now report 2013) As of 2011, 62% university graduates were female and 40% of total EU workforce is female. Ethnic Minority Spending Power will top £300 billion this year in the UK (BITC 2013) 60% of younger workers (Generation Y), say it is not likely that they will stay with their current employers for the remainder of their working life (Rosetta Thurman). Grey pound is set to hit the £100 billion mark, the spending power of people over the age of 65 (Age UK 2013)
OUR DIVERSITY PARTNERS
“DiversityJobs.co.uk applauds the direction Salt has taken in terms of their approach to diversity, it’s refreshing to work with an agency that sees the opportunity to widen their appeal to a broader social spectrum and is raising the topic to their clients rather than waiting to be asked. The recruitment industry needs more businesses like Salt who see Diversity as an asset, rather than a liability that has to be dealt with.” - Morgan Lobb, CEO and Founder of DiversityJobs.co.uk
