Q: How do you support your employees to have a work/life balance?

A: We understand that individuals have personal as well as professional goals and commitments they are looking to maintain. We want to get the balance right between both.

LCP has a flexible working policy across all employees. We have core business hours (typically 10am-4pm), but beyond that graduates have flexibility to work in an agile way, as long as the needs of clients continue to be met. In addition, we operate a hybrid working policy which enables employees to split their working week between the office and working from home.

Q: What is the dress code?

A: We ask employees to ‘dress appropriately for your day’. This means you can dress in clothes that make you feel comfortable. If you have a client or formal meeting, then we would expect professional clothing to be worn. 

Our goal is to create an inclusive environment for all and we embrace our people wearing clothing, hairstyles and accessories that reflect their preferred gender expression, culture, ethnicity and/or religion.
