What employees say

"What I most like about working at Global Shares is the entrepreneurial spirit, friendly atmosphere and feeling of endless opportunity. There's a ‘Clonakilty taking on the world’ mindset: If you challenge yourself and think big enough, anything's possible.

I've been with the company since 2014. We were a small team of about 50 back then with big ambitions and we were about to launch our new global software platform onto the market. It's been an amazing experience to be part of the company's evolution as it has grown into a truly global leader.

We are continuing to grow at rapid pace. Everybody who works here has an important role to play and can make a difference. It's exciting to be part of!"

Word from the top

I'm extremely proud that we are a Great Place to Work certified company for the third consecutive year. It is testament to our team and our continuous investment in our people, who are key enablers of our organisational strategy.

As part of the certification process, we spent a lot of time really examining ourselves as a company. We carried out workshops with staff from a wide range of departments, offices, and backgrounds to re-establish our core values; we did employee engagement surveys to find out what changes were important to people to shape our future HR policies, we established ‘Global Cares’ - our jam-packed wellbeing programme & launched a new eLearning platform. What emerged from our journey to accreditation is that people are at the heart of who we are and what we do.

We know that challenges remain ahead of us, but we've got an exciting five-year HR plan and we'll continue to improve and mature as an accredited Great Place to Work.
