At RVU we believe that 'everything is written in pencil'
We've embraced a quick thinking, assumption-challenging culture and combined it with our unique industry expertise and experience. The result? An exciting place to work, where we challenge ourselves daily and adapt to change quickly. We have fun and take our work seriously, but not ourselves.
Being great people to work with
Embracing our differences, we strive to create an inclusive environment where we are able to bring our best selves to work. We hold ourselves and our team members accountable. We coach others and invest in strong performers and culture carriers. We have fun and we take our work seriously, but not ourselves.
Everything is written in pencil
Adaptability is our secret weapon. The bigger we get the smaller we act, so we constantly change the way we organise our work. Flat, small teams allow us to move quickly when we can and should. We value fresh perspective and constantly challenge our own assumptions.
Winning the right way
We stand up for what’s right. We provide outstanding experiences for our employees, customers, and partners. We want to invest in the communities we operate in and use our expertise to improve the world around us.
Leaving the wood pile higher than you found it
Our true purpose is to do all we can to positively change the trajectory of the people and communities that we touch. As long as we are clear and focused on this, our journey and our impact will be like no other.
Making every second count
We capitalise on momentum. We know that the world is changing quickly and we act deliberately and urgently, like we're running out of time. We value constant innovation and have a bias to action in order to get important things done.
We can be the change we wish to see in the world
We believe that action expresses priorities, and we have a responsibility as individuals and as an organisation to interrupt injustice and indifference whenever we see it. By holding ourselves accountable to being open and inclusive teammates, community members, and leaders inside the walls of RV, we will set an example for others in the world to follow.
Getting better every day
Embracing a growth mindset and focusing on making our teams better every day. We value coach-ability, passion and an intrinsic drive to improve. We challenge people to go outside of their comfort zones and promote the spirit of debate.
“Working at RVU over the last four years has been fantastic. It is very rare to find a work environment that is truly challenging, but also contains very supportive and helpful colleagues. The feedback culture is also a plus and is something that has benefited me a lot in my personal life!”Ato Okai, Senior Regulatory Compliance Manager, RVU

RVU in the community
We believe in leaving the woodpile higher than you found it. It's one of our core beliefs. It's part of who we are.
We want to add value where we can make a real difference. We'll use our expertise. We'll give our time. We'll make a difference. We encourage every RVU employee to pitch their suggestions on new ways we can make a difference. One of the ways we do this is via our partnership with SEO London.
