No outsourcing. No losing control. No wastage. No hierarchy. No egos. We built strategy, creative and account management around a production core. We also wondered why media and creative were so far apart, so brought those together too. From humble beginnings, we now partner with some of the biggest consumer brands in the world, who are just as not normal as us.
We are passionate about promoting diversity, inclusion, and equality, and are committed to working with clients who share our outlook. Our focus at Recipe has always been on our people, protecting and building on our unique culture and never standing for “normal” work. We offer equal opportunities to all candidates regardless of background, identity, sexuality, and disability.
We strive to create inclusive cultures through our dedicated internal DE+I counsel. Our mission is for everyone to feel empowered to be their true authentic selves at work. In turn, we've developed a series of pledges and actions that serves as an evolving commitment to build on our sentiment that every employee is an ally, equality of opportunity for all, to listen, to speak out, and to always be actively inclusive.
