What makes Airswift different?

Simply put, we care. Our staff around the world care deeply about every candidate, contractor and client that we service and this care translates to our ongoing growth and performance. We are a people first business which means we must consistently demonstrate excellence, and this drives us forward every day.

Why are you passionate about what you do? 

I believe very strongly in our mission to improve lives through the world of work. Our services positively impact the lives of our staff, candidates and contractors and literally change their lives for the better. In addition to this having the opportunity to learn from and interact with so many fascinating people around the world has enabled me to grow, and I love that the fact our global outlook and operations has exposed me to this.

Which Airswift value(s) do you believe are particularly important and why? 

Growth – Airswift has created a world-class culture of encouraging personal and professional growth and facilitating those that wish to embrace it. The tenures and career progression of our leaders within Airswift is not the industry norm and having benefited from that trust myself to chart my own career, I believe this value strongly defines us. Growth allows our people to develop into leaders that promote all of our values every single day.
