  Equal opportunity

  Equal opportunities are important to KEEP. We look to engage, employ or sub-contract people who are technically skilled and experienced. We have no pre-requisites or pre-conceived ideas of whom is best for the role, if they are technically competent (or can be trained to be) they have an equal opportunity to work with us.

  Wellbeing

  Wellbeing of our staff and sub-contractors is of a critical importance to KEEP. We offer private medical cover and mental health awareness training to permanent employees. Alongside flexible working practices, discretionary leave and ample paid holidays. We aim to make KEEP an enjoyable place to work, where we deliver for our clients, work hard but don't get to the point of burnout. ; If KEEP can't deliver a particular project (for any reason) we would rather offer it to one of our known associates (with buyer agreement) or discuss with the buyer regarding their flexibility. Rather than suffer burnout trying to deliver "too much", which is ultimately detrimental to the buyer and more importantly our staff.
