ZEN CULTURE

At ZEN our recruitment decisions are driven by our Culture and our SHARED Values:

SAFETY

The safety of our employees, customers and environment always comes first and takes precedence over the attainment of all other objectives. We believe that if it cannot be done safely, it cannot be done right. The safe way to do things is the best and most effective way in the long run, and all our actions must reflect this individual and collective commitment.

HONOUR

We individually regard it as a rare opportunity and privilege to work with our colleagues and to serve our customers; doing so brings us pride, esteem and pleasure. We believe that pride in and honour from our individual and collective achievements is our greatest motivator.

AGILITY

We respond more quickly and decisively to anything that concerns the customer. We
work smart without cutting corners. Our responsiveness to our customer’s expectations determines our organisation structure, our processes, our practices, our plans and our product and service offers.

RESPECT FOR THE INDIVIDUAL

We are a collection of dedicated, hardworking, ordinary people who have teamed up to accomplish extraordinary things. We have very different backgrounds and beliefs but we believe that every individual deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.

EMPOWERMENT

We promote networks over perceived hierarchies, empowerment over stifling controls. We believe in and foster an enabling environment. We believe in demonstrating leadership at every level and empowering our employees to enhance their personal development and effectiveness, and hence ultimately, their ability to meet the expectations of our customers.

DELIVERY

We are known for managing our value chain with the aim of delivering to our customers on time and in full, every time. We constantly push boundaries. We only stand down when the customer says “received, ok”.

ZEN Culture is generally characterised by:

Friendliness, flexibility, informal but very professional working environment
Flat organisation, with easily accessible top management
Networking to get the job done, not hierarchy
Mainly informal, desk-side, standing, to-the-point meetings
Minimalism and results orientation i.e. fewer steps to safe and good quality execution – if a process can be done safely and effectively in 3 steps, we won’t design a 4-step process; if a policy can be effectively communicated in one page, we don’t do it in 3 pages; if a one-line email will suffice, we don’t do spreadsheets
Not too many rules, but strict enforcement of the few we have, especially regarding standards, safety and compliance
Pragmatism – very few organisations value and balance technical/management skills and common sense like we do
