We are obsessed with helping our team grow and be challenged with training and upskilling opportunities as well as supporting any other aspirations you may have. Whatever your goals are, we have formal and informal times of the year to make them known, and get you to where you want to be.

We strongly believe in sharing knowledge with the whole team. That may be taking part in our weekly ‘Mahi Matters’ showcase, or sharing your passions at one of our Friday sessions. We have a regular time set aside every week to learn, motivate and be inspired.

At a higher level, we developed our own bespoke Growth Pathways Matrix; a set of skills and competencies that you can reflect on to set goals and enhance your craft. This is just one part of the Growth Pathways Framework to help guide and grow you at PaperKite. We encourage peer feedback to suggest areas of improvement and celebrate your milestones. We also encourage conversations around performance and your measures of success at least twice a year. All of these are in addition to regular 1:1s with your Lead.

Giving and receiving feedback or ‘Telling the Kind Truth’ happens all the time at PaperKite, so you won’t have to wait till your peer reviews or 1:1s for this. We give virtual ‘High 5s’ on Slack and we close out every week by inviting everyone to share what they are grateful for in person.

Our people-first focus offers the opportunity for any team member to be part of our Wider Leadership Forum, a regular space for your voice to be heard and contribute to PaperKite’s strategic initiatives. The team is also invited to be part of our People Experience Squad, a team 100% focused on evolving our culture through listening to our people.
