Why join Acronyms?
We understand that there’s far more to a job than 9 to 5 and a salary.
It needs to be fulfilling. You need to feel supported, respected, and valued, and ultimately have a purpose and something to believe in. That all comes from building the right company culture.
By reading below we hope you’ll get a better idea of who we are, and what it means to be part of the team at Acronyms.
Who We Are.
In 2003 Acronyms founder Dave Smith was fed-up with IT companies overselling, so he founded a business with a simple ethos – to sell the correct solution, not the most expensive. Over 15 years later and this ethos, along with quality of service and a passion for technology, has led us to become a trusted provider of IT to businesses across the South West and further afield.
Our mission is therefore to provide businesses with exceptional, tailored IT and unified comms that are fit for purpose, exceed our clients’ expectations and that our employees are proud of, and we do this by staying to true to our core values. After all, they make us what we are, they’ve helped us get where we are today and we’re sure they’ll continue to help us in the future.
Partnerships: We seek to create long lasting partnerships with our clients that make a positive difference to their business.
It wouldn’t be possible to build long lasting relationships with our clients if we didn’t build them with our employees first, many of whom have worked here for more than five years. One of our proudest achievements is our high level of staff retention and with happy employees, come happy customers.
Transparency: We provide an authentic, dependable, and approachable service and we are always transparent.
Being transparent ensures everyone in the business and connected to it, knows exactly where they stand, what’s expected of them, what’s going well and where there’s room for improvement. Everyone at the company (including Senior Management!) attends quarterly one-to-ones, whilst the company host quarterly company wide meetings and provide means of offering anonymous feedback, so we can ensure the company is always honest and open about how we can continue to grow, thrive, and do the best we can.
Exceeding Client Expectations: We deliver an exceptional experience that goes beyond our clients’ expectations.
And we like to do the same for employees too! We endeavour to make Acronyms an enjoyable, comfortable, and exciting place to work. We’re not Google and can’t promise you a slide in the office, but we do provide our staff with flexible working conditions, fully funded training, certifications and courses, free fruit and snacks, regular company events, giveback days, paid overtime, and a holiday loyalty scheme for long serving employees.
Delivering The Correct Solutions: We don’t oversell. We provide the correct solution for each and every client.
Doing what’s right is important to us. It’s how you build trust and a solid reputation that others can believe in and naturally this extends beyond our client relationships. It’s why we support our local communities and numerous other charities and initiatives. It’s also why we provide every employee with a day of giveback, fully paid. It’s simply the right thing to do.
How we help our employees give back.
As an SME we believe it’s vitally important that we play our role in the local communities we’re lucky enough to call home. We want our employees, as well as their friends and families, to grow up, live and work in happy, safe environments that enable them to prosper, and whilst we have a duty to our customers, we feel we also have a responsibility to help those around us, that might not be as fortunate as ourselves.
Our approach to CSR.
Charity of the Year
Each year we support a charity or local cause, helping to raise both funds and awareness, with the company match funding employee efforts.
Community Sponsorship
We sponsor local events in the spirit of community enjoyment, that encourage an active lifestyle. Most notably we are sponsors of Britain’s Ocean City Running Festival.
Community Giveback
Every employee can spend one day a year fully paid volunteering for a charity or cause of their choosing.
Armed Forces Support
We are signatories of the Armed Forces Covenant and proud sponsors of various military charities including Team Endeavour Wheelchair Rugby Team and the West Country 100.
How we help our employees learn and grow.
At Acronyms, we believe the best way we can help is to invest in our employees and that’s why we actively encourage all members of staff to pursue their career aspirations tirelessly. We’re happy to fund, mentor, provide the time, support, and encouragement you need so that you can have the career you desire. Whether you want a certification in particular hardware, you want to become an expert in the products of a certain of vendor, or you want to pick up new skills and expertise entirely, if there’s a case for it, we’ll support you every step of the way.
By investing in our employees, we invest in our company and our collective futures. In short, everyone wins. It just makes sense!
