A big congratulations to Thomas, who is celebrating 10 years with the company! We sat down with Thom to find out more about his time at Zest. Q. What is the appeal of working for Zest? It sounds like something you'd say in a LinkedIn post to big up the company but there has not been one day during my time here that I've dreaded coming to work and I feel the reason for this, first and foremost, is because of the people. Everyone is always up for a laugh and doesn't take themselves too seriously at any level which gives a relaxed social atmosphere. Q. How do you feel the company has changed over your time here? Professional development has been key to my own standing in the business and it's great to see people that joined the company into entry-level positions, much like myself, moving into management and strategic roles. Q. How do you feel you fit into the Zest culture? I'm a Zest legend.
"I have been working at Zest since July 2021 as their Office Manager. Since day one, I have been given the freedom to create a way of working that works best for me, combining flexible hours and working between the office and home. I genuinely feel that my experience and what I bring to the company is valued, and the improvements I have implemented thus far have made a positive impact and been well received. This has been such an easy process as the culture is relaxed and friendly and they are open to change. There is no ‘them’ and ‘us’ with senior management and we are all very much part of the same team and there is no micro-managing. There is a strong feeling of positivity and confidence as we strive to accomplish more and make the business even better. People are rewarded and we celebrate both big and small wins, making Zest a great company to work for."
"I joined zest in July 2021 as a helpdesk advisor. Since joining, from the recruitment process, to training, to where I am now, I have been met with continuous support & motivation from everyone here. I had 0 experience in insurance when I started & zest have helped me to a place where I feel confident in my role. There are plenty of opportunities to grow & evolve here, with additional training always provided if wanted or needed. There is no micro-management and hard work is truly recognised, with additional incentives given on a regular basis. Everyone here is very friendly & welcoming; zest have built a great office culture which I am proud to be a part of. Zest recognises that happy employees means happy customers. Plus the work parties are always a bonus! I look forward to my future with Zest."
