Staff reviews
“
After finishing University, it was daunting to move into a role that I had limited experience in. The team at Firstmac have been extremely welcoming and helpful through mentoring me in this role. The WFH option has allowed an amazing work-life balance as well as the encouragement of participating in social events. The culture at Firstmac is truly a family environment - I have felt very comfortable and welcomed as I only began the role in June.„
“
I was offered an opportunity to expand my HR skills whilst having the flexibility and support to study part-time, I have such an amazing team and the overall workplace culture and vibe is truly awesome. It is so fantastic to work in an organisation that provides employees with flexible working arrangements and really fosters work/life balance culture, as this means so much to me starting out in my career and also working alongside such wonderful peers/leaders!„
“
A great team environment, lots of in-house knowledge and experience for a marketing department rather than outsourcing everything, and a good mix of brands to work on„
