Our culture is based on respect and people feeling valued
Life at PAI
Life at PAI is founded upon our connections, our partnerships and our collective expertise. Through a shared purpose and values, together we strive to create a better working world where everyone can realise their potential.
We operate in a dynamic and challenging marketplace. By working together, drawing on the combined expertise and experience of our people, we look to truly transform the businesses we support, making them bigger and better.
To be successful, we ensure that our employees have the right opportunities and working environment in which to thrive. We have built a culture of collaboration and partnership where people feel valued and respected, and where talent and hard work are rewarded.
All of this is made possible by our values, which shape both how we work within our individual teams and across the business, and how we work with our investors, partners and portfolio companies.
Our values
We believe each employee brings an invaluable set of qualities and perspectives to the workplace. Our values reflect and reinforce this idea, as well as provide guidance on how we will work together to build a thriving business.
- Respect: We respect the people who contribute towards our success and the impact we have on those who work with and for us. We consider the trust placed in us by our investors a privilege and constantly respect the responsibility that comes with that trust.
- Balance: We always look to strike the right balance between agility and diligence in everything we do. We regularly review the way we work to ensure it remains efficient and effective.
- Relationships: We recognise the value and importance of taking time to build strong relationships at each point of our business: with our colleagues, our investors, our partners and our management teams.
- Standards: When it comes to standards of performance, return, responsibility and accountability, our investors rightly place high expectations on us. In turn, we place the same standards on ourselves: individually, on our teams, our advisers, our partners and our management boards.
