3. We speak with radical candour
Honest communication is at the core of our culture. We don’t shy away from tough conversations or big ideas. Instead, we speak directly to one another, ensuring feedback is empathetic and constructive but also “to the point’” and shared with the right audience. This level of openness allows us to cut through complexity, build trust, and focus on moving forward together.
4. We nurture high talent density
Great companies are built by great teams, and we’re serious about having the best and brightest on ours. We hire people who are smarter than us — those who inspire and challenge us to grow. It’s not just about filling roles but ensuring every person adds value and drives impact. We move fast by focusing on results rather than getting bogged down in processes. Ownership is key here — learning from mistakes is part of the job, and growth is always on the horizon.
5. We are data-driven
We rely on data to guide us in everything we do. We know our numbers inside out and make decisions based on clear metrics. We dive deep to identify the root cause of any problem and make tough calls with confidence based on thorough investigation. Every project has measurable goals, and we constantly assess our performance to ensure we're on track to meet them.
6. We stay humble
Ego has no place at Payhawk. We stay grounded by constantly seeking feedback and always focusing on how we can improve. Knowing our strengths is important, but so is recognising our weaknesses and how to manage them. We encourage each other to roast ideas, embrace different opinions, and find the best solution together — no matter who comes up with it. Here, everyone’s voice matters, and the best ideas win.
7. We exhibit strong work ethic
At Payhawk, we don’t just show up — we show up prepared. Whether it’s meetings, interviews, or projects, we come with clear objectives and are ready to make progress. We take personal responsibility for managing our time productively while also helping the team succeed.
Collaboration is key, and we make sure to be approachable and supportive when others need help. We care about impact so we’re adaptable and committed, even when we might not fully agree.
