We are a vibrant and inclusive organisation with several active people networks, a 360-degree feedback community who regularly engage with the Executive Committee on projects to make GIAA a great place to work.  As well as all of this we offer hybrid working, flexible working options and flexi-time as standard; work-life balance and the wellbeing of our people is important to us.
