Our values
Our values are in our people’s DNA. They guide the way we work with our clients, how we engage with each other and how we relate to our communities. They underpin everything we do at Roq and they make all the difference.
Roq’s success is driven not only by the diverse skills and strengths of our team, but by a shared commitment to living our values every day.
It begins with a thoughtful recruitment and onboarding process that ensures new team members are aligned with our culture from day one. We then support each individual with tailored career and personal development programmes, using our values as a guiding principle to ensure everyone remains true to Roq’s distinctive and rewarding culture. We also prioritise working with clients who share our values, which has led to long-standing, trusted relationships built over many years.
By making values alignment a key part of our partnerships from the outset, we’re able to create truly collaborative and successful outcomes.

Our values Superheroes
We’re a business where values are lived by everyone
They are invaluable in bringing the whole team together to share successes and achievements. That’s why we introduced our Values Superheroes – to really bring our values to life.
Throughout the year, our Cheers for Peers initiative gives everyone the chance to recognise colleagues who go above and beyond in living our values. From these nominations, a select few are chosen to become Values Superheroes - caped annually and proudly stepping into the role of Roq ambassadors.
They take on the exciting responsibility of championing our values across the business, adding a sense of fun, pride, and belonging.
