Values

At GateHouse we share a number of fundamental values. These may be divided into three categories – our employees, our business and the surrounding world.

Employees



GateHouse wants to be an attractive place to work. We focus on the following:

 

  • Freedom with responsibility
    We want every employee at GateHouse to have a great deal of influence on the planning of his/her own work as well as flexibility in the choice of tasks. Each of us lives up to that by taking personal responsibility for our own work and by making a professional, dedicated and proactive effort to achieve the common goals

     
  • Competencies
    We consider competencies – and, consequently, the employees – to be GateHouse’s most important resource. As a company, we make a continuous and systematic effort to recruit, retain and develop first-class competencies. As employees, each of us takes responsibility for our own professional and personal development.

     
  • Relations
    We focus on long-term relations based on respect, loyalty, credibility and trust between the employees and the company.

     
  • Teamwork
    We value the ability to work both in teams and individually, and we make a continuous effort to maintain and build team spirit in the company.

 

Business


GateHouse is run as a well-established and successful business. We focus on the following:

 

  • Growth
    We aim to make the most of the potential of our business areas through a proactive effort.
     
  • Competencies
    We build our business based on advanced technical competencies, and we aim to develop through demanding and challenging projects.
     
  • Dynamic organisation
    We want a form of organisation that facilitates smooth decision-making and effectiveness, gives each individual employee a great deal of direct influence, and creates an informal environment with open and direct communication at all levels.
     
  • Processes
    We improve our processes and best practices continuously to optimise our effectiveness, ensure the right quality of everything we do, and prevent unnecessary work.

 

Surrounding World


GateHouse takes part in society as a responsible company. We focus on the following:

 

  • Relations
    We focus on long-term external relations based on respect, loyalty and credibility, and we aim to create value for GateHouse and our customers.

     
  • Customers
    We always put the customers first; the internal business of the company gets second priority.

  • Change
    We approach change, diversity and challenges with an open mind, and we aim to make the most of the opportunities presented to us by a dynamic and global world.

     
  • Society
    We are an ethically, socially and environmentally responsible company contributing to the positive development of society
