This year, we celebrated 10 years of Alfred. 

The agency wouldn’t be what it is today without the team behind it. It’s important to us to recognise and celebrate the team’s contributions to the agency, and the positive impact they make to their colleagues and clients. 

We know that a strong culture breeds exceptional work. 

We created the Alfred Culture Awards in 2022 to champion the team members who have made a significant contribution to Alfred. Growing from five categories in 2022 to eight in 2023 (including a bonus category on the night!), and all voted for by their peers.

The categories encompass team members who promote mental health and well-being, those who constantly seek out insights and trends and go above and beyond for our clients, to those who provide strong mentorship and champion everyone to be themselves. We also celebrate a rising star of the agency and the person who lives and breathes our values on a daily basis.
