Austin Fraser & Austin Vita
The purpose
We're on a mission to build incredible futures, deliver the best Tech and Life Science talent, and embed ourselves in the community.
About us
Austin Fraser is the UK's specialist Tech and Life Science recruitment company. Since we launched in 2007, our people and our culture have continuously set us apart from the competition. The Austin Fraser team has grown from two people in a garage, to 200 people across three countries. But our attitude towards internal recruitment remains the same: bring in great people and offer them all the tools, support and training they need to become truly excellent market specialists. Every member of our team lives the values of Austin Fraser: earn it, own it, love it.
Flexi working approach
In September 2020 we launched Flex Appeal, our people can now work their contracted hours whenever and from wherever it best suits them. We don't have set hours, our people can design their working day to fit around their life commitments. We followed this up with the launch of Flex Away in Feb 2021, this is our version of an unlimited holiday policy. Our people can choose to have a completely flexible approach both inside and outside of work.
Benchmarking score
Employees rated flexibility
The business is willing to be brave and make decisions that are based on the well-being of the employees (e.g. flexible working, unlimited holiday) that other companies in our sector may not make. They aspire to be people first and live up to the bill. - UK Manager, Austin Vita
What do we think of Austin Fraser & Austin Vita?
In an industry not renowned for its flexibility, Austin Fraser are doing some groundbreaking work. Employees are given the freedom to choose how they work, with a results-driven focus rather than clock watching and desk-time. Great to see!
