Blurred

Blurred champions a comprehensive understanding of ‘reward’ that extends beyond mere financial incentives – it emphasises a supportive work environment tailored to individual needs and life circumstances. Central to its strategy is The Deal, a dynamic framework that fosters a mutual commitment between the organisation and its employees that encourages them to ‘bring their best selves’ to work. This is supported by a suite of policies that address diverse needs, such as gender transition, reproductive health and grief, ensuring that everyone is supported no matter what their personal circumstances might be.

Blurred also offers an enviable set of benefits, including substantial holiday allowances, personal coaching, subsidised ‘green home’ solutions and inclusive family leave policies. Employees at Blurred enjoy the flexibility to choose benefits that best suit their lifestyle and personal circumstances, from private healthcare or additional pension contributions to gym memberships and access to wellbeing retreats. Longevity is rewarded with progressively enhanced benefits, fostering a culture of loyalty and making staff feel that the agency is supporting their long-term personal and professional growth. 

Blurred’s commitment is also evident in its approach to personal development and mentoring, tailored to the diverse backgrounds and needs of its employees – a holistic approach aimed at enhancing productivity within a supportive and inclusive workplace environment.
