Living Our Values

Our values are part of everything created at Assent, including careers.

 

Optimism

We believe deep sustainability is not only possible, but inevitable if we all work as one.

Depth

We dig deeper because that’s where the buried treasure is.

Diligence

We bring customers the insights and support they need before they even know they need it.

Integrity

We do what’s right, always. When we say “whatever it takes”, we never forget it takes all of us.

Fearlessness

We tackle the problems others won’t, solve the puzzles others can’t, and help our customers do more than they ever thought possible.

Joy

We find joy in collaborating with diverse, bright, curious people from around the world on things that really matter. We believe in the power of fun in all we do.

Perspective

Diversity is not only a matter of respect but also a way to supercharge our perspective and success.

Work The Way That Works for You

At Assent, we proudly embrace a remote-first work model, valuing the flexibility and autonomy it provides our team. We also acknowledge the intangible benefits of occasional in-person workdays. For team members situated within 50 kilometers (31 miles) of our five global offices in Ottawa, Eldoret, Penang, Columbus, and Amsterdam, you can expect to come into the office one day a week. Similarly, those near our co-working spaces in Nairobi and Toronto are encouraged to work onsite once a month.

Spot Your Opportunity. Make Your Move.
