Our values
Our purpose and values are well embedded in the business and form the basis of our workforce policies. They help to unify us and describe the core beliefs about how SEGRO does business. They are a universal language across our business and the countries in which we operate.
We are proud of our purpose, which is to create the space that enables extraordinary things to happen. It encapsulates why SEGRO exists and what energises our people. Further to our purpose, our values are our core beliefs about how we do business. They guide our decision making, as well as how we interact with each other and our wider stakeholders.
Maribel Jimenez, Office Manager, Barcelona
"My chosen value is 'If the door is closed' as it is an invitation to explore new possibilities and to find the right solutions. Behind that closed door awaits a canvas of opportunities pushing us to seek alternative paths, discover new solutions and unlock the door to unexplored potential."

Carsten Lümkemann, Director, Technical Development, Germany
"My favourite value is 'Keep One Eye on the Horizon'.
We are living in a world where things are changing around us faster and faster. We must adapt to these changes in ever shorter periods and to be properly prepared for this, it is important to open our eyes today, to what awaits us tomorrow.
As part of my role, I make sure our buildings are as sustainable as possible. We are constantly faced with new challenges such as reducing our carbon emissions to combat climate change.
I must keep up to date with the latest technical innovations so that we can decide whether they are useful for us in the future and contribute to the sustainability of our buildings. I think this is a key fact to maintain the attractiveness of our portfolio.”

Monika Mikulska, Manager, Asset Management, Silesia
"I like the value, 'Stand Side by Side'.
It is a sense of community and belonging, promoting cooperation over competition. It encourages us to work together harmoniously and as a team we can achieve more together."
Monika Mikulska, Manager, Asset Management, Silesia
We always give honest feedback, keep our promises and keep messaging clear and simple.
If one route is closed to us we always find another way. We challenge ourselves to think differently and search for new ways to succeed.
We work together and put the interests of our business ahead of our own. We go out of our way to support each other and share knowledge across the business.
We keep things simple and continue to look for improvements to how we work. We challenge ourselves to be the best that we can be.
We constantly look ahead to ensure we are successful in the future. We do this in part by taking an active interest in our customers and their customers.
