What makes us different
Our culture
In work, as with our products, we like to take a refreshingly different approach to things. At the heart of everything is a rich family heritage, an unrelenting ambition to keep innovating, and a true pride in who we are.
Of course, we’re a professional organisation. But you wouldn’t describe us as ‘corporate’. We’re fairly informal and like to find the fun in things.
Our values
We’re always driven by doing the right thing — by our employees, our customers, our suppliers, and our investors. So our people created these values as a reminder to ourselves, and a declaration to the world of what who we are and what we stand for.
Vimto is in our veins. We’re united as one team, always in it together. We welcome every one of our colleagues for who they are. Every opinion matters.
It’s true what they say: when you enjoy what you do, it shows. We’re all about using our passion to drive us in everything we do. It’s the fuel behind our innovations, the spring in our step and the energy that keeps us ticking.
We’re determined to go the extra mile and exceed the expectations of our colleagues and customers by delivering ‘wow’ moments (big and small) every day.
When you’ve been in the business as long as we have, we could get comfortable with the way things are. But in comfort, comes complacency. Which is why we’re dedicated to seeking new and better ways of doing things, pushing the boundaries when we need to, to play our part in improving the world and all who live in it.
We know how and when to be serious, but we always aim to find the fun. Positivity is infectious. We work hard, but play hard, and celebrate our successes.
Standing up for what you believe in isn’t always easy. But when you take a step back and look at things, you can act from the heart and make a real difference. We all take accountability, and do what is right, and not what is easiest.
Building a Happier Future for our people & partners
We are working to create a happier future for our people and our partners.
While our people tell us Nichols is a great place to work, we know we can do more. We are committed to being an inclusive employer and are learning what this means every day.
We are striving to ensure we are building more diverse teams, not simply because it is the right thing to do, but because we know diversity is key to our continued success. We are at our best when we bring together our different life experiences, ways of thinking and individuality.
