Company FlexScore™
Scoring against our flexibility index (1 = not at all flexible, 100 = couldn’t be more flexible, 51 is average) using a number of parameters to assess flexibility such as working from home, hours, frequency of travel, benefits, etc.
Employee FlexScore™
Scoring against our employee perception index (1 = not seen as flexible, 100 = couldn’t be happier with the flexibility, 51 is average) using a number of more emotional / perception based questions to understand whether employees feel supported and offered what they want. The areas we cover are work-life balance / managerial support / flexible benefits / working environment / and many others.
"We have monthly mental health leave which everyone is encouraged to take and we also close the business down for two weeks over the Christmas holiday as additional leave (we also did the same in the summer last year); we have a dedicated wellbeing room which helps with accommodating needs still while in the office. We are encouraged to work from wherever we are most productive."

Approach to diversity & inclusion
Anthemis devotes an intentional focus on diversity in all its endeavours, whether our innovations, the societal impact of our choices, the companies we invest in, or how we design our organisation. At every level, we strive to create a healthy, balanced, inclusive, equitable and mindful workplace, and also the industry and economy at large. Whilst its always been intuitive to us, our strong focus on belonging, coupled with our approach to leveraging diversity on all its forms is now recognised as driving greater financial performance and the capacity to solve complex challenges for impact.
What do we think of Anthemis Group?
Anthemis are the first Flexified VC! Finance is not the most notoriously flexible industry, so the fact that Anthemis have built this into their ways of working to such an impressive extent is a real testament to their commitment to flexibility. The generous holidays, and focus on wellbeing further add to that culture of flexibility. Well done Anthemis 🙌
