CULTURE EATS STRATEGY FOR BREAKFAST

As a small company we want to create a culture of ownership, continuous development, teamwork, fun and integrity where people want to stay longer term and build their career with us. We think one of the main reasons people stay with a company is down to its culture. Culture eats strategy for breakfast as someone once said! We keep things sociable by frequently going out as a company for lunch for each other’s birthday (or any celebration we can get away with), having beers in the office on a Friday, ordering in pizza on ‘BD days’, afternoons out of the office doing activities such as crazy golf, darts, bowling, rounders in the park, fun runs and charity bike races. That's without mentioning the quarterly incentives we run for lunches at Michelin starred restaurants, days out at the horse racing and trips oversees.

CALLING ALL LINGUISTS!!

Being an international business, it is integral to us that we have linguists working at River. If you speak any of the following languages fluently then this would be very much of interest to us; - German - French - Dutch - Spanish - Mandarin

A LITTLE HISTORY...📜

River started in a box room in a leased office which had no windows. Following our first successful placement, we upgraded to a room with windows and a little more space. River has been slowly upgrading the office space year on year until 2015 when we finally moved into our own office in central Covent Garden which can facilitate our growth plans until 2020...

INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL ✈️

Being an Executive Search firm based in London with such a wide global reach with our clients, international travel becomes an integral part of our business.

The team here at River have recently travelled to Singapore, Hong Kong, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland and France with further trips to Europe, the US and Asia planned in the coming months.

SYSTEMS & IT

Our software licenses are updated monthly to the newest versions available, along with updates on our database and database email integration system. Our current environment utilises the very latest enterprise grade CRM systems and databases making them accessible and editable from anywhere on the planet with an internet connection. We have created a cloud set up for our employees where it’s possible for consultants to work remotely, particularly during international travel as we have consultants working in different time zones so if it suits for them to do early morning calls at home and come in when appropriate, they can do.  

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

We encourage our employees to contribute to our communities and are passionate about supporting a number of charities through numerous internal events. This year we’re proud to be supporting Macmillan and Age UK.
