Cyber-Duck
Cyber-Duck, a digital transformation agency, says its team of "ducks" are a close-knit flock from all kinds of backgrounds. It belongs to the Employers Network for Equality and Inclusion and says its diversity makes it stronger. Plus, there are social events to suit everyone, from gaming nights to the company's annual hackathon.
Based in Elstree, Hertfordshire, and with a London office, the small company works with global brands such as the Bank of England, Cancer Research UK and Compare the Market. It transforms websites, apps and strategies for customers, ranging from start-ups to public-sector organisations and blue-chip corporate giants.
Cyber-Duck's principles include protecting its people and acting with selflessness and accountability. It likes to promote from within and 40% of its managers have come from inside the company.
Ducks have contributed to BBC Watchdog and The Gadget Show, and spoken at events such SXSW, the annual conglomeration of parallel film, interactive media, and music festivals and conferences. They have worked with UK Trade and Investment and UX London, the Brighton-based strategic design and innovation consultancy.
The company aims to embed sustainability into its way of working. Most of the senior management team have electric vehicles and there is a charging point at the head office. Staff use public transport wherever possible. The organisation is also reducing overseas trips and ensures that those taken combine multiple purposes.
