Life@Adept

A job with Adept Scientific is always demanding. We're a determined and committed bunch of people, highly motivated to use our talents and skills to achieve our own goals and those of the team we're part of.

Our working environment is intense, challenging, creative, open, energised and fun. Whether we're debating the best way of implementing a marketing campaign, chasing a hard-fought order, helping a customer solve a problem, or sharing a celebratory pizza or Chinese feast at the end of another successful month, Adept people are engaged, involved. We care about the company, want to see us sell more, achieve more, do better. And we share in Adept's success: sharing in profits through a monthly bonus scheme, sharing our regular social events, sharing the satisfaction of a job well done.

But we don't just live to work. We believe it's important to achieve a life-work balance. As a company we care about our employees' overall well-being; as individuals, we care about and support each other. We work hard so that we can enjoy the rewards of success, achieve our ambitions and lead fulfilling lives.

A major factor in your decision to join Adept Scientific will be the quality of the people you'll be working with. We've attracted talented people from all kinds of background, with all sorts of experience, to help us rise to all the new, exciting challenges we meet every day. Working with interesting people, on challenging projects, in an environment high on responsibility and low on politics makes Adept people look forward to the working day.

As a company we're not big on hierarchies or giving orders. We are big on responsibility, initiative and mutual respect - respect for each other, for our customers and for our suppliers. Everyone's job is important, everyone is valued. Everyone's ideas are listened to, their suggestions welcomed. And we're all self-motivated, doing our best (without being told) to make things happen and to serve our customers. "That's not my job" are words you never hear at Adept.

Everyone here is deeply committed to their part of the company; but we're always thinking about the big picture, too. As Adept grows, we promote and encourage creativity, an open exchange of ideas across groups, and a respect for the challenges and opportunities inherent in our business.

Our working philosophy - work hard, have fun - really means something at Adept. Our people radiate a genuine enthusiasm for their work. We put our hearts and souls into what we do, for we know real customers are counting on us to supply innovative products and top-quality service - and to keep our promises. The fun is a natural extension of doing what we love to do.
