Our Culture

At Encore our culture is driven by four key values:

1. Own your role

Though we work as a close-knit team, at Encore everyone takes full responsibility for their own work. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail and independent thought.

2. Never stop learning

We’re a creative bunch that love to continually share new ideas and help each other learn. Every fortnight one of us gives a “Lunch ‘n’ Learn”, an informal presentation on a topic of their choice, from 3-D spatial mapping to owl noises (yes, this happened).

3. Take care of each other

We ensure that every member of the team is valued for who they are. We organise informal coffee catch-ups, weekly team lunches, and monthly socials - past examples include capoeira and yoga workshops, laser tag, and a Brazilian BBQ.

4. Don't forget the music

We’re driven by a genuine desire to help more musicians earn a living through their craft. We’re also musicians ourselves and regularly hold informal jam sessions in the office after work.

Perks include:

Free breakfast on Tuesdays
Cycle to work scheme
Technology scheme
Central London office
Table tennis and foosball tables
Showers and bike store
Monthly company socials
Flexible working hours and 25 days annual leave
