What We Do

Our pledge in practice.

At Ziipline, giving back isn’t a tick box exercise – it’s embedded in our culture. Every quarter we set aside a Volunteered Time Off (VTO) day, where our team gets together to support local communities.

In 2024, we volunteered at Hackney City Farm, Friends of Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park, and Hackney Foodbank. We’ve also donated well over 1% of our profits to these causes and others, including Macmillan Cancer Support and The Magpie Project.

What Our Team Says

Ziipline’s culture is built on teamwork and shared effort, and our VTO days are a perfect example of how that works. We give our all to a cause, and that shared effort strengthens our bond as a team. We work hard, give back, and celebrate together. This same team spirit extends to our projects, and that’s the Ziipline way.

Stu Gare, Lead Architect

Giving our time is one of the most powerful ways to give back. Volunteering for Hackney Food Bank reminded me that small efforts can make a big difference in someone’s day. I’m truly grateful to have had this opportunity through Ziipline to help those in need.

Gowri Sathiya, Senior QA Consultant

Working at Ziipline genuinely inspires me. The energy here stems from passionate individuals, incredible technical talent, and a shared drive to make a positive impact. What really makes it special is how much giving back is part of our DNA. As part of Pledge 1%, volunteering isn’t just something we do once in a while, it’s something we truly care about and celebrate together.

Maddie Marston, Marketing Manager

Our VTO days at Ziipline have been such a highlight for me. It feels like spending time with friends who truly care, with just the right mix of banter, friendly competition, and a genuine opportunity to make a difference.

Toshna Rane, Graduate Consultant

After volunteering with Hackney Food Bank, we knew we wanted to do more. Our 100km walk from London to Brighton helped raise funds where they’re needed most.
