Our Culture
We don't just work side by side. We maintain a Scout24 Culture Code. This code describes who we are as a company — our very own Scout24 DNA. Our culture influences everything we do: how we approach tasks, share information, define success, how we work together, how we communicate, make decisions, allocate tasks, and much more.
Data Driven
We pay special attention to protect sensitive corporate and personal data. We store and process data in accordance with legal requirements.
Learning
We take every opportunity to reflect, recover and learn. We recognize failures early and are able to adapt quickly to changed market situations and changes in the legal environment. We continuously improve our processes and internal workflows by our lessons learned.
Proactive
We act in a responsible manner. Personal accountability is the belief that we are fully responsible for our own actions, consequences and results. It’s a choice and an expression of integrity.
One Team
We respect each other, celebrate success and embrace diversity. We unite diverse people, cultures, capabilities and ideas. We embrace a diversity of viewpoints to recognize the value of individuals’ differences at all levels of the company.
Our culture & values
Scout24 gives its employees the opportunity to shape their own culture.
But how exactly does a company develop its own culture with recommendations and guidelines? One option is to impose these top-down and then consider them set in stone. Scout24 has gone a different way because it is our conviction that employees shape corporate culture with their actions. And this is why Scout24 has given its employees the opportunity to shape and develop their own culture. Work kicked off in 2019, with a task group made up of employees from different departments and hierarchical levels. In workshops, they jointly defined what our culture – our DNA – looks like and what topics move us. In addition, more than 70 interviews were conducted with various company representatives. The results of the workshops and interviews ultimately gave rise to the Scout24 DNA Culture Code, which is applicable throughout the Company. The code describes who we are as a company and the standards that underpin how we work together. Integral to the Scout24 DNA Culture Code are our four core values. Our core values are: We are a Data-Driven company and are constantly Learning. We are Proactive, act as One Team and treat each other with respect. These core values apply to all employees, regardless of rank. To ensure that managers are also expressly committed to a values-driven corporate culture, four leadership behaviours were additionally derived from the core values.
We embrace diversity and inclusion
At Scout24, we want to create an inclusive environment in which everybody is valued fairly and has equal opportunities to succeed – regardless of their ethnicity, the colour of their skin, gender, sexual identity, age, religion, ideology, disability, marital status, nationality or any other attributes. We strongly believe that the diversity of our Scouts is a foundation for our long-term success. The more diverse our teams are, the more experience and ideas can flow into our products. This enables us to tailor them even better to the needs of our customers. More than that, an inclusive work environment fosters the loyalty and motivation of employees. To make the topic of "Diversity, Equity & Inclusion" even more visible to our employees, we implement various campaigns, events and learning formats in the company. For example, we have carried out company-wide anti-discrimination trainings with all areas. In our annual Diversity Weeks, we offer info sessions on topics such as allyship in teams or sessions co-designed by employees on racism in everyday life. In doing so, we take a holistic approach that considers all diversity dimensions.
Diversity Statement
We at Scout24 value and embrace the diversity that our employees bring to the company because we are convinced that precisely this diversity is the foundation for our success. We as a team can only unlock our potential if you feel secure, valued, and respected as an individual. We welcome you home just as you are. Bring your true self to our team which is a safe space for everyone with all gender and sexual identities, skin colors, ethnic origins, citizenships, ethnicities, religions and beliefs, disabilities, ages, or marital status.
