Imagine your favourite part of your job as an ice cream flavour. 
What would it be, and why?

The best part of what we do at PSYKHE is the team that makes our work possible. The way we problem-solve even the most complex of issues and bring out the unique and best in one another - it all comes together to create something rich, rewarding and worth showing up for every day.

What is something you are deeply curious about?

I’m curious about what drives people to behave and act in certain ways - how emotions, experiences and environment shapes us in ways we aren’t always aware of. Our world is human, and humanity is a tapestry of unpredictable wonder. As much as I can in this lifetime, I enjoy uncovering the ‘why’ behind it all.

Make an impact with us.

We are always on the lookout for the curious, bold and driven. Join us for the opportunity to push your bounds, hone your craft and make an impact.
