Senior Performance Executive

At Hatched, we’re all about Goodness & Growth. Cracked Daily.

The goodness at Hatched shines through in our approach to staff wellbeing and our employee value proposition. We’ve even been awarded for it by AFR Boss Best Place to Work and recognised for our People & Culture efforts by the B&T Women in Media awards.

Perks of working at Hatched.
Our offices in both Melbourne and Sydney are modern, fun and set up for both collaboration and quiet time. Our offices are dog friendly and close to some of the best that Windsor and the Sydney CBD has to offer; cafes, public transport, cinemas and importantly great bars and restaurants.
Hatchlings get 5 paid wellbeing days per year and 2 days paid for volunteering. We offer flexibility, so you can work from anywhere, but we love to see you in the office for 3 days each week and every Tuesday for our all staff catch up.

Every Thursday before payday, lunch is on us! We all take a break to have lunch together in the office, then follow lunch with Good Thursday, Great Talks, where a few Hatchlings take to the microphone with a mini-talk on any topic they like. We’ve had talks on everything from how to make a hot-pot to brat culture and conspiracy theories.
