Frank, Bright & Abel. Being part of us and being all three

Working with us

Our name says a lot about what we’re like to work with. We think that if our clients are happy and our people are happy, then we’re successful. Find out more about our culture and how we care for our people.

We believe in being in it together

We’ve got a small family feel, but the work we do is complex and challenging. We take our work seriously, but there’s lots of chatter and laughter. We provide all the flexibility of a small business, but with all the necessary grown-up systems in place.

We believe in difference

We celebrate individuality and expect collaboration. We provide the freedom to grow and want our work – and our people – to be as good as they can be. We believe in diversity, inclusion and equality and delivering on this is bigger than us alone. Read more

I love the depth of expertise at FB&A. There is a specialist on hand for every stage of the project – yet we are small enough that I get to work alongside all of them.

<Laura Dunne Frank Bright Abel

Something that stood out and was a big factor in my joining FB&A was the balance of gender in leadership roles in all aspects, from owners to creative directors. Female presence in these positions is inspirational and important to me – and so often just not there in business.

<Max Greer

The best placement I’ve ever had in any job. I’ve learned skills that will stick with me forever. I’ve grown personally and professionally.

How we behave

We’re individuals and very much one team. This is because we have a shared view about how we should act to make Frank, Bright & Abel great to work for and with.

We’re
https://frankbrightabel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/cbs01.png

We say what we think and care about how it lands with people. We want people to be themselves and part of the team. We earn the respect to advise clients on what they need, as well as what they want.

We’re
https://frankbrightabel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/cbs02.png

We’re optimistic and ambitious, for our clients and ourselves. We think rather than use formulas. We don’t see the boundaries between strategy, creativity and delivery. It’s all communication.

We’re
https://frankbrightabel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/cbs03.png

We dot every ‘i’ and cross every ‘t’. We’re not jobsworths and nothing’s too much trouble. We know a job’s not done if it’s not done well.

What defines our commitment to diversity and inclusion

We believe in difference. We recognise, accept and celebrate what makes each one of us, ‘us’. Like most organisations, we do not yet reflect all the differences of the world. It’s a work in progress with a clear plan.

We believe embracing the differences in who we are, where we’ve come from and how we see the world, spark better outcomes and a better journey getting there. We also believe in playing our part in making the world a more tolerant, equal, just and better place. Differences make the difference. We couldn’t and wouldn’t be Frank, Bright & Abel without them.
