Visiting our office and colleagues in person always feels very familiar and safe – it’s like seeing family. I love the ‘open door’ that our leadership team and CEO have which makes them approachable and easy to talk to.

Minal Hawkins

I’ve worked for CIMSPA for over 3 years, and I have never experienced a workplace quite like it. Across the organisation there’s an air of authenticity, respect and enthusiasm. I feel as if every contribution is not only heard but considered and you’re given the autonomy to explore those ideas.
Throughout the organisation there’s a golden thread of support and the person-centred approach and focus on work-life balance and wellbeing is like no other.
Ben Hulson MCIMSPA

CIMSPA is the best organisation I have ever worked for, where people really do come first. CIMSPA deeply cares about its people and I have personally been supported and mentored, allowing me to find my way and grow both as a person and as a manager. This is has enabled me to become much more self-aware and develop those around me.
I genuinely love CIMSPA’s mission and believe we can truly support the sector to be a focal point in supporting the excellent people working to build a healthy and active nation.

The best thing about working at CIMSPA is the culture. Everybody takes pride in their own work and delivers to a super high standard which inspires me to do the same.
