“I see my future at ARP as an opportunity to apply my newly acquired knowledge in a work environment that values trust and responsibility.”

What were your first impressions of ARP?

I had the first interviews for my job around three years ago. These were open and honest conversations with the recruiter, team lead and a colleague, in which there was plenty of opportunity to ask questions. On my first day, I was warmly welcomed by the entire team, who made sure I got the support I needed and felt right at home.

Tell us about your day-to-day work at ARP.

My job is incredibly varied so I create content and images and also handle product and portrait photography. One thing’s for sure, I’m never bored! ARP trusts its staff, which gives me the freedom I need to plan my day, which is hugely beneficial given my multitude of tasks.

How do you see your future at ARP?

Working here has given me the opportunity to study corporate identity and branding. As part of this course, I am learning to provide strategic advice, apply various design methodologies, conduct extensive research and define policies for optimising, expanding and/or developing our brand. I am far from finished and am very much looking forward to applying my newly acquired knowledge at ARP.

What should applicants know about working at ARP?

The culture here is very supportive and open. Colleagues are always willing to jump in and help so everyone feels welcome and collaboration is both efficient and fun. The company also helps you grow professionally.

Core values according to Lianne

Ambition

For me, ambition means the opportunity to grow and develop and a culture in which I’m encouraged to realise my full potential and unearth my talents.

Trust

Trust means support at every level—from management to colleagues—that fosters a culture of collaboration and commitment.

Responsibility

This means actively contributing to a culture of transparency and openness, in which everyone is kept up-to-date on developments and progress, and where open and honest communication is the standard.
