Mission Mars is an innovative and thriving multi-concept operator with over 20 vibrant venues across the UK, all centred around a mission of delivering exceptional food, drink, entertainment, and hospitality experiences. The business’s vision is brought to life by its dedicated team of professionals.

Engagement and communication are key to the company's success. The leadership team conducts regular check-ins via weekly bulletins and bi-weekly newsletters, keeping all colleagues up-to-date with key information, business highlights, and vacancies. The Fourth Engage account, a social media-style news feed, allows all employees to stay connected, share news, and celebrate successes, making a significant positive impact on the workplace environment.

The commitment to personal and professional growth is evident in Mission Mars' robust development programmes. The management development programme, for instance, offers a clear pathway for aspiring leaders, complete with mentorship, performance tracking, and cross-site learning opportunities. This fosters an environment where talent is recognised, nurtured, and rewarded, whether through promotions or performance-related overseas trips.

Mission Mars' belief in giving back extends to its partnership with Youth Zone, a local charity supporting young children, and its internal Mission Mars Foundation. The company encourages staff participation in fundraising events, further fostering a sense of community and purpose within the team.

Finally, Mission Mars is committed to sustainability, with ambitious targets to reduce waste, minimise energy usage, and eliminate single-use plastics in their live music venues. The team takes pride in working towards a greener future, aligning the company's actions with its values of innovation and sustainability.
