Vivi International secured a series B funding round that saw it expand internationally and make last year’s Smart50 list of fastest-growing SMEs. This grand expansion has ushered in some growing pains.

“We have had a period of immense growth in a small amount of time. With that comes an immense amount of opportunity to grow and learn, but there is workload and working hours that have been the largest challenges at our stage.

“To solve some of these challenges we are implementing core business hours, flexible work arrangements, and going through role-clarity exercises to ensure we are providing clarity and transparency in a global environment.”

To manage these challenges, Vivi International offers a range of mental health initiatives, flexibility options and communications structures to ensure remote working staff are kept in the look and don’t feel isolated.
