Our
Valued Behaviours

At Hays, we believe that a positive culture, anchored in our Valued Behaviours, is fundamental to our success as a responsible and sustainable business. We focus on creating and maintaining a culture where people work in an environment that enables them to contribute to the delivery of the Hays strategy and success, where they can develop and grow their careers, and where they can have a positive impact on our customers, candidates, and the communities we belong to.

As a people-centred organisation, we harness the power of collective contributions from our teams to continue making a difference for people and organisations around the world.

Our Valued Behaviours
Our vision is to be the global leader in recruitment and workforce solutions. We achieve this by truly understanding the needs of our candidates and clients – locally and globally – and working with them to deliver positive outcomes. We want every colleague at Hays to feel connected to our business and to the way we work together. Our Valued Behaviours guide how we act every day, how we serve our customers, and how we contribute to the communities we belong to.

Our Valued Behaviours are:

Own the Outcomes

We strive for performance, think things through to the end, and always act with integrity. We have a clear vision for the future, believe in transparency, and set clear expectations of each other so that we can deliver our best performance. It’s not just about working hard; it’s about making our efforts count. We are trusted because we do what we say, and we act with good intent, treating others respectfully and adhering to the highest ethical standards.

Champion the Customer

We work proactively with our customers to create better, profitable solutions. We have a customer-oriented mindset, meaning every colleague – regardless of role or location – is connected and focused on delivering the best service for our customers, whether they are internal, external, or candidates. We think ahead, seize opportunities, and anticipate changes so we can provide the best expertise.
 

Be Better Together

We support, celebrate, and share with each other to achieve better results together. We have a strong sense of community based on inclusion, collaboration, and co-creation. When we win, we win together. We create space for people to be authentic and give everyone a voice so we can find the best solutions. When we strengthen each other, we all succeed.

Be Bold and Curious

We are ambitious, deliberately step outside our comfort zones, and experiment. We are flexible and open-minded. We try new things, fail, learn, and grow. It’s about being ready to take calculated risks. At its core, it means knowing that we won’t always get things right, but learning, adapting, and improving is essential for our continued success.
