angel of education
London
We create innovative web-based applications to help all levels of the education
sector, from pupils, teachers and school leaders right through to local
authorities and large academy chains. Our tools are used nationwide, as well as
internationally. We Believe… Everyone deserves a quality education; Freedom &
creativity breed innovation; Excellence should be noticed & rewarded; Life is
better with some fun & personality; Greatness comes from always knowing that you
can be better; Angel is not its employees, but our beliefs. Those will live
forever. The Angel Circus At the beginning of 2012, we converted our offices
into a Circus so that our surroundings could reflect the personality and
innovation that takes place within the company. Why a circus? Because the circus
is a place where talented performers train hard and work to entertain and thrill
their audience. In the same way, we want to wow people with our software,
customer service and support. We love seeing visitors’ faces when they come to
meet Team Angel at our circus. There’s a Big Top and gypsy caravan for creative
meetings, a grandstand (complete with ball pool) for presentations, a full-wall
blackboard for ideas and inspiration, plus fairground mirrors, a popcorn machine
and plenty of other circus curiosities for fun. Most of our staff have even
learnt to juggle! And really, it’s our staff who reflect the Angel Solutions DNA
more than any props ever could. How We Encourage Creativity… Beyond the circus,
creativity and innovation is central to how we work. We give staff plenty of
opportunities to promote and showcase their talents, whether work-related or
not, and place a high value on ongoing learning. Most importantly, we always
strive to celebrate effort and creative thinking in our team, just as much as we
celebrate their successes. For example, our staff might… Introduce a new work
process to try to save time Trial a new technology inside one of our products
Teach a skill or share an idea at a lunchtime smorgasbord session Work with a
totally different team on an innovation day Run a staff training session to
share their knowledge Do an online course to learn something new No matter how
busy we are, it’s important to us to carve out precious time like this. We hold
Innovation Days every month and encourage as many people as possible to pause
what they’re working on to take part. During that time, teams can mix up and
people have an opportunity to work on whatever they want! At the show and tell
sessions at the end of these days, presentations are always met with the sound
of applause and cheering, whether or not they worked out! Our Performers More
than anything else, our company culture is genuinely reflected in the wonderful
people who make up our staff team. Lots of our staff have been with us a long
time now — some since graduating from university — and their hard work,
dedication, expertise and creativity is rewarded. Take a look at our jobs page
for more on the benefits we give our team, or see our Flickr photo gallery for a
flavour of what it’s like to work at Angel. Want to Visit the Circus? We love it
when schools, authorities and other current or potential stakeholders come to
visit us here, and are always welcoming to the office groups of students or
people from other sectors who want to come and meet our team. Only here at our
circus can you get a true feel for who we are and what makes our products and
services so special. Simply get in touch if you’d like to pay us a visit. We are
