Extra curricular

Being connected and memorable moments

Outside of the hurly-burly of our digital work we like to come together to celebrate each other’s company, be that scaling mountains, sitting round fires roasting marshmallows or helping a local charity paint their fences. Keeping it human.

Culture

Happy team. Successful team.

Building a culture of creativity, autonomy and responsibility is important to us because we know that a motivated and engaged team will deliver for our clients. We know we don’t always get it right but we try and use the following working principles to guide us in our day to day working life.

Be excellent to each other

You make time to help your colleagues and always try to leave a situation better than you found it. You treat your teammates with respect independent of their status or disagreement with you. You check your ego in at the door. You care deeply about Kyan’s success, and you want your teammates to be successful.

Be a geek

You are curious and hungry for knowledge. You are interested in design & technology and business. You strive for excellence, are responsible for your own learning & immerse yourself in your role. You constantly look to improve your skills and the process at Kyan.

Get shit done

You will always go that extra step to achieve a great result and inspire others in doing so. You keep on going when the going gets tough and you’d rather leave a bit late than leave something in a bad place.

Awards & Recognition

We are proud to have been recognised for our work, our impact and our culture
