QR_ Talent Philosophy
We are “doers and improvers”, addressing gaps in data management and control that limit complex engineering organizations. QR_'s people think in data, drive real-world outcomes, and win together. Working with QR_ you’ll benefit from our team of “sociable nerds” – people who can uniquely blend collaboration and influencing with a desire to solve the world’s problems using data-led decision making.
Attraction of talent
We focus on creating an enjoyable employee experience with regular, thorough feedback, and progression through a number of careers paths based on achievement rather than time served.
Development of talent
QR_’s rigorous, multi-stage assessment selects the top 1 percent of applicants, often from academic and professional backgrounds beyond sector norms. This breadth of experience and thought is a key strength and differentiator.

Harnessing the power of diversity of thought
Diversity of thought and experience is essential to a consulting business that is serious about helping organizations thrive:
Hiring different... we hire for mindset and teach the rest. Diversity of backgrounds, not characteristics.
The hive mind... each QRian can harness the power of our collective knowledge base.
Not one role... our teams have a diversity of individual and collective experience from different sectors and programs.
Invested in client success... our teams care about client success as an insider with the perspective and knowledge of an outsider.
