Careers can travel down three routes: Delivery, Billing and Business Development and Management. We will put the right people down the right path for their personality. Top billers are not universally the top leaders. All promotions are dependent upon values as well as performance and these are covered in monthly performance reviews.

WE ARE INSPIRED BY AND LEARN FROM THE ELITE IN SPORT, BUSINESS AND THE MILITARY
Elite performance The company is named after Bart Starr, quarterback of Vince Lombardi’s legendary Green Bay Packers Team. Their commitment to the team, brilliant execution of the basics and leadership help bring our story together. We constantly look to innovate and find marginal gains through technology, strategy and culture to create a world class, elite performance environment where our consultants gain an “unfair advantage” against their competition.

Incentives are designed to reward all round performance and include: ■ Car allowance scheme ■ Bart Starr awards (quarterly cash bonuses for “Esprit de Corps”)
