Life at Seven Hills
From regular socials to a keen focus on health and wellbeing,
we make sure there is plenty to enjoy at our riverside home.
GIVING BACK
We actively encourage charitable work and volunteering. From year round fundraising to support for Shelter and Cancer Research, we back good causes and offer one day per year for every member of the team to volunteer for an organisation of their choice.
FLEXIBLE WORKING AND SUPPORT
We offer flexible working, a short term salary advance if needed, and we each have access to Perkbox, for discounts on everything from cinema tickets to car hire.
SEVEN HILLS ACADEMY
Throughout the year we invite great campaigners, entrepreneurs and leaders to visit and share their experiences with us. A brilliant chance to hear from inspiring people about the ideas that drive them.
CHANGEMAKER
OF THE MONTH
Each month we recognise one person who has excelled in their work and contributed to the firm’s mission over the previous few weeks. Nominations are taken from the full team, with the winner awarded a prize worth up to £75.
MILESTONE CELEBRATIONS
We never miss an opportunity to mark a major milestone. Every birthday is celebrated with a cake and early leave, and every anniversary with champagne.
SEVEN HILLS SOCIALS
Each year we put together a vibrant calendar for the year ahead to ensure there are plenty of opportunities to come together as a team. Recent socials have included a darts night at Flight Club, our summer sports day, curry night, as well as our annual start to the year brunch, summer away-day and Christmas party.
FRIDAY FEAST
Food is a big part of life at Seven Hills and we make sure we break bread together every Friday with delicious lunches served from local caterers. We also celebrate the team’s efforts each week with our (in)famous Friday drinks trolley, regular quizzes and of course, Sid the Frenchie!
WELLBEING INITIATIVE
Our Wandsworth location means we work right next to the park and the river. Perfect for a lunchtime walk! We hold a healthy breakfast once a month and encourage our team to boost their mental and physical wellbeing where they can.

Today we’re thrilled to announce that the new Change Makers podcast track is Pure Being, by our former guest @beatiewolfe! 🚀🎶😄
Brilliantly talented and innovative ‘musical weirdo and visionary’ who is breaking boundaries with every new project, Pure Being will feature on this season of Change Makers.
Change Makers host Michael says: “Beatie’s music speaks to the journey of life, and its questions, which are so consistent with the themes of Change Makers. Everything Beatie is about, as evidenced by her episode, feels like the right influences for the show. She is an incredible musician and for us to have her music gracing the show is just wonderful.”

This week marked a major milestone for our client, @thevaluable500 🌍
“It’s no longer good enough for companies to say ‘disability doesn’t fit with our brand’ or ‘it’s a good idea to explore next year’. Businesses cannot be truly inclusive if disability is continuously ignored on leadership agendas”. Those were the words of @carolinecaseyhere on the main stage at the World Economic Forum in Davos as she launched The Valuable 500 in 2019.
It is now the world’s biggest CEO collective for disability inclusion in business - this week announcing the 500 commitments from CEOs and their companies worldwide, including Apple, The Coca-Cola Company, Deloitte, Google, Procter & Gamble, Prada Group, and Unilever.
This global business leadership community will now work to increase representation, become accountable for employment, and each sign a commitment for disability inclusion. What started as a campaign, is now a system change community for disability inclusion.
We're very proud to have been the long-term global communications partner for The Valuable 500 since the movement was started.
