Working at iAM Learning

iAM is an incredibly busy and stupendously creative environment. There’s always room for fun in amongst all the hard graft, though. We love having fun at work. Because, I mean, what’s the point otherwise, right? That doesn’t mean we don’t take our work seriously, though. Our brand is so important to us, and we think that shows in the quality of our work.

We don’t do hierarchy either. We’re all in this together and love to work collaboratively as a team. That way, everyone’s ideas get the space, time, and consideration they deserve, and the company and our customers benefit. So, everyone’s a winner!

Finally, we like to keep it simple. And that goes for everything we do. We don’t do complicated jargon or unintelligible ideas. Keeping learning and development simple is central to what we do. After all, learning can be tricky enough at times without making it more difficult than it needs to be.

Our Process

We don't like formal interviews. They’re generally a bit nerve-wracking, uncomfortable, and rubbish. We’ll have an informal chat over a coffee instead. Or a herb tea – whatever floats your boat.
Let’s face it, if you make it to interview stage, you can do your job. We’re more interested in whether you fit with our values and culture, whether you like what you see, and what you can bring to the role.
For our creative roles, we like to audition. So, 10 seconds of animation, a few frames of a storyboard, or a trial script to see whether your style meets our brand. It’s always great to see something new, though. So, don’t be afraid to be creative.
The recruitment process for sales, marketing, and our other customer facing roles also starts with an informal chat, but there will be some specific tests at the interview stage. For instance, if you’re interviewing for a sales role, there’ll be a mock telephone or video sales call to gauge your suitability.
Our interviews are simply conversations, not a stern grilling. We like to find out about you, we like to tell you about our history, and see how the two can mix.
