Our GROW values
Our GROW values are the four values that every Summize team member embodies in everything they do. They represent how we all show up and how we strive as one winning team.
Why GROW is Us?
Tom Dunlop
CEO and Founder
“GROW is the foundation of our culture. When each of us lives by these values, we don't just grow as a business we grow as people.”
Our values in action
Growth mindset
Our Growth Mindset value is all about proactively seeking out opportunities for continuous improvement in everything we do. We acknowledge the potential of marginal gains by reviewing and refining our ways of working.
Growth mindset fund
A large fund for personal development, training courses, industry conferences and seminars to help grow each employee's knowledge.
1% improvement
The chance of winning £1000/$1250 each quarter by implementing a 1% business improvement!
Respect Others
We believe that respecting diverse perspectives, backgrounds, and ideas is the foundation of innovation. We listen actively, communicate openly, and create a safe space where everyone feels valued and heard.
Your GROW moment
We encourage people to ask for a ‘GROW’ moment as a chance to deliver feedback related to values or behaviors in a safe space.
Community, wellbeing and DEI teams
Employee-led groups delivering and promoting several initiatives related to diversity and inclusion.
One team
We win together. We break down silos, share knowledge freely, and support each other across departments. When one of us succeeds, we all celebrate — because our success is collective.
One team channel
An active and encouraging channel where we support celebrating the success of colleagues across all offices and departments.
One team Fridays
Bi-weekly roundups for the chance to get together as a whole team, treat ourselves and celebrate togetherness in a relaxed and fun way.
Will to win
We are ambitious, resilient, and driven. We set high standards, celebrate progress, and learn from setbacks. Our will to win fuels our innovation and keeps us focused on delivering exceptional value.
GROW awards
Quarterly GROW awards that celebrate employees who embody and win against each value.
Performance recognition
Regular shout-outs and rewards (such as a quarterly team lunch) for exceeding your goals and demonstrating our values.
Celebrating our Q3 GROW winners
Every quarter, we recognize four colleagues who truly embody our GROW values. Their impact goes beyond targets — it shapes how we work, lead, and support each other.
Eden Cunningham
Senior Customer success manager
"Eden has had a fantastic quarter, she has managed multiple tasks beyond her role, building new innovative business tools in Claude, participating in customer webinars, helping with office events as well as achieving exceptional renewal rates with her customers."
Kris Legzdins
Management accountant
"Kris is an exceptional team member who consistently goes above and beyond in everything he does. He is always approachable, genuinely kind, and takes the time to support others, no matter how busy he is. Kris is always just happy to help."
Product Owner
Leanne Hayes
"I don’t know how Leanne does it all! She seems to be everywhere at once, collaborating across teams andconsistently adding value. While she brings an incredibly strong depth of product expertise to Summize, what truly sets her apart is how seamlessly she blends product thinking with customer insight and marketing awareness."
Mariana Cimpureanu
Senior Implementation Manager
"Mariana is an absolutely superstar and a credit to the implementation team. Over the last quarter she's been juggling all of her customer projects alongside helping another colleague transition into the Implementation function. She is always available for questions that people have and always giving 110%."
Values that drive us
Abisola Fagbenle
People and Talent Business Partner
“GROW isn’t just a poster on the wall. It’s how we make decisions, how we support each other, and how we show up for our customers every single day. When we live these values, culture becomes our greatest competitive advantage.”
Lucy Jones
Lead Talent Acquisition Manager
“We don’t hire people to fit a template. We hire them to grow into our values.
Every training, every celebration, every tough conversation is guided by GROW. That’s how we build a workplace where people truly belong.”
Let's GROW together
We’re always looking for curious, respectful, and driven people who want to grow together. See our open roles and see if there is a fit for you.
