Our Culture, MORE THAN WORDS
OUR VALUES
People are the business at Alfred.
We live and breathe more than words with our values, because ultimately, our actions speak louder than anything else.
Curious – We go beyond the obvious, we’re tuned-in to people and what is going on in the world.
Human – We celebrate realness and individuality, bringing our honest selves to work and actively avoiding jargon. Open conversations between the team and our clients.
Ambitious – We empower everyone to find their ‘thing’ and make a lasting impact. The result? An inspired team producing meaningful client campaigns.

TAKING ACTION
B CORP
Our belief is that business and brands can be a force for good. No longer should we be debating the idea that it is a choice between purpose and profit. The reality is purpose drives success while positively contributing to the world.
We act on this belief in the work that we do, the way we treat our team and now our B Corp status. We are so proud to have achieved this as recognition of our values.
You can read our 2022 Impact Report here. Alfred’s 2023 Impact Report, our first as a certified B Corp, will be published in 2024.
DIVERSITY, EQUITY AND INCLUSION
We are committed to making real progress by taking the right action to make a difference. We have mapped our commitments as to how we are increasing diversity, equity and inclusion at Alfred to ensure that it is an integral part of our culture.
