We spend a
third of our
life working
That’s a long time.
At Invicomm, we take pride in our working environment, and we strive to make every second count. We live and breathe our values to ensure that every member of the team achieves their full potential.
We are collaborative
Many creative agencies believe that the best results are achieved through promoting competition between designers. We take a different approach. We strive to enhance each other’s skills and strengths. We believe that the rich sound of harmony is produced by different notes played at the same time. When we work collaboratively, we can harness positive actions such as empathy, compatibility, and cooperation.
We are proactive
For us, anticipation is a superpower. It gives us time to address the future, think long-term, create strategies, avoid negative outcomes, and prepare for positive results. Proactivity enables accountability, time efficiency, and problem-solving.
We are curious
A curious mind is always looking for connections and open to different viewpoints and ideas. We enjoy asking difficult questions and are open to alternative answers. Standing still is not an option.
We are brave
We value people with strong opinions who stand up for their ideas, even if they stand alone. We are not “yes men,” and we are not afraid to stand up for what we believe in. We are also kind to each other because kindness takes courage.
Opportunities
We believe in great thinkers. A team made of diverse viewpoints, experiences and backgrounds propells creativity and innovation
