OUR CULTURE 

Like Digital’s head office is based in London, however we are currently all work from home and from various countries and we are looking to keep it flexible. Above all, we believe in close internal collaboration with a true culture of learning. So, when we are in a room together, our designers sit beside the developers, and project managers alongside finance – which plays a strong role in fostering a culture of engagement and sharing. 

 

This means that right now, even though we might not be able to sit side-by-side, we still cherish collaboration across departments. Moreover, we challenge each other to think outside our boxes! 

 

To that end, we believe in

  • personal development time, 
  • work study offers, 
  • self-learning opportunities, 
  • overall encouragement for you to push your knowledge into areas of professional interest that you choose. 

 

We feel our team is our strength!
