Fully hybrid working

Rostrum has a hybrid working policy and encourages people to work from wherever suits them. If team members wish to balance work between the office and home, they have access to the agency’s ultra-modern workspace based in Covent Garden.

Training and development

Rostrum hugely values personal development and training within the agency. This is immediately evident in the career trajectories of so many of their team.

To name a few success stories at Rostrum:

Just in this calendar year, Rostrum has already completed 400 hours of training across the team, with a mix of internally and externally hosted sessions.

In addition to core skills training in media relations, reputation management, social media and more, Rostrum has an extensive budget for helping individuals in bettering both their professional and soft skills. Some examples of personal development sessions Rostrum have recently held are:

• Charlotte Wiseman (mental health advocate), coming in to talk about resilience and how to achieve ‘mental fitness’.
