What it means to be a T-Hawk
When you join Tomahawk, you’re not just stepping into a job...you’re becoming part of a purpose-driven crew of marketers, creatives, techies and tourism lovers, all working together to make magic happen for our clients.
Being a T-Hawk means showing up with heart, curiosity, and a good dose of humour. It means caring about your team mates, backing each other, and never missing an opportunity to celebrate a win. It also means embracing our love of snacks!
We are committed to personal development and support every T-Hawk’s growth with ongoing learning, mentoring, and opportunities to develop new skills. We live by four core values that guide how we work, collaborate and grow:
- Collaboration: We believe the best ideas come when we work together. We’re a true team, always ready to share knowledge and pitch in.
- Communication: Honest, clear, and kind communication is our superpower. Whether it's with clients or colleagues, we keep the lines open.
- Balance: We value great work, but never at the cost of wellbeing. We support flexible working with a hybrid work environment and encourage our team to prioritise life outside of the laptop too. Our shared office space on Ponsonby Road has a great vibe for any of your in-office days!
- Celebration: Life’s too short not to celebrate. From project wins to birthdays, we love finding reasons to pause, connect and enjoy the journey. Our quarterly team event days are a highlight for T-Hawks, which can sometimes be a secret surprise or an even a wee bit challenging!
