Empowering our staff to give back to their communities
Through introducing our most powerful assets, our people, we are able to raise a considerable amount of money to Candlelighters to help support them with their important mission.
From Total Warrior to Sky Diving, we love to put on a show and raise valuable funds for our chosen charities at the same time.
We love to dress up and run regular fancy-dress days depending on the season and days, filled with fun games and activities.
We support monthly salary donations to Candlelighters to those that wish to give back on pay day.
As a dedicated sponsor for Candlelighters, we raise our hand to participate in big charitable events when needed. Whether it's pushing awareness, or rolling up or sleeves, we love to get involved.
A workplace that values staff
Our people are our most valuable asset. So we have created a workplace where everyone has a voice, is important, and can make a difference.
We try and make the world a more sustainable place, too
Being forward-thinking doesn't just stop when it comes to business. We care greatly about the world we live in and aim to promote a 'green' culture in our offices.
The culture group
Different people from different departments, ages, genders and ethnicities are part of the culture group here at Optm, where they discuss how to improve well-being in the workplace. They also plan exciting and fun social events that everyone can take part in.
The culture group lives and breathes Optm, and if you have any ideas or improvements they are the ones to go to.
Our Values
Diversity
We are committed to providing equal opportunities to all individuals based on merit, qualification, capability and potential.
We do not discriminate in employment opportunities or practices based on age, gender, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation or any other basis protected by the Equality Act 2010.
We encourage any questions or concerns to be brought up to us without fear of reprisal.
Everyone has a voice here.
We have dedicated a room in the office strictly for those that wish to practice their religion in peace.
