We do things differently with upside-down management
Nobody else does things quite like us. We flipped our management structure upside-down to put customer-facing colleagues in charge.
It makes colleagues, customers and managers much happier – and takes our service to the next level. It’s all based on our culture of…
Trust
From changing prices to inventing new displays, we trust our colleagues to do whatever they can to amaze our customers.
Freedom
We offer support, not orders. Every colleague has the freedom and authority to find the best way to run their shop.
Kindness
Happiness is the most important thing to us. We love surprising colleagues and customers with regular acts of kindness.
1. Look the part
Maintain our standards and keep things smart. It couldn’t be simpler.
2. Put money in the till
There’s nothing complicated about this. It’s plain common sense!
We have a culture based on kindness
From wowing customers to treating colleagues, kindness always comes first at Timpson Group.
Our values make us better, every single day
There is no magic secret to our success. Instead, we have a simple set of values that explain what makes the Timpson Group culture so special.
Some are quirky, some are common sense. But they all help guide how we behave and interact with others every single day.
Amaze our customers
We put everything into offering a kind & friendly service that puts smiles on faces.
Put people first
It’s our wonderful colleagues who drive our success, so we spend a lot of time treating everyone well.
Aim to be the best
Even when we feel like we’re the best, we still aim to get better. It’s just how we do things here.
Only pick the best
We recruit solely on personality – everyone should have a 9 or 10 out of 10 character!
Ignore best practice
Rules can stop people from being their best. Personality, initiative and invention are the most important things.
Enjoy change
We push ourselves to turn dreams and new ideas into reality. It’s how we’ve stayed up to date all these years.
