People are our secret sauce!
From day one Seagrass has attracted and retained people well above any benchmark, because they feel appreciated at a deeply personal level and can freely contribute to the health and growth of the business. Everyone is encouraged to be their authentic self, to work together with a strong sense of optimism and a belief in a shared outcome.
The ‘people first’ culture is performance oriented, drawing out personal strengths, encouraging individual and collective growth, all woven together with a sense of good humour and inclusiveness. We enjoy celebrating the wins and rally around to tackle the challenges. Trust in the purpose and the people in equal proportions is the success recipe. You can’t have one without the other!

As the day comes to an end, we’d like to say a big thank you to the team at The Meat & Wine Co. Adelaide for rallying behind #RUOKDay. 💛

Lunch, a chat, a chance to really connect. 💛
This week our Melbourne and Sydney Support Offices gathered together for lunch in support of R U OK? DAY.
R U OK? Day does more than raise awareness, it shifts how we show up for each other. Through simple, caring questions, backed by real listening and follow ups, we foster a culture of connection, empathy, and ongoing care every single day. 💭
This R U OK? Day, Head Chef Joseph brought the team together at Hunter & Barrel Raine Square to connect, share a meal, and pause for something truly meaningful, asking the simple question, ‘Are you OK?’.
This breakfast wasn’t just about food, it was about being present, creating space for honesty, and reinforcing that here, we’re all seen, supported, and valued.
Let’s carry that intention beyond today. Here’s to checking in any day. 💛
This week, team members from Meat & Wine Co. came together for morning tea and meaningful conversations in support of R U OK? Day. 💛
R U OK? Day reminds us how powerful a simple question can be. Checking in with our colleagues, friends, and loved ones shouldn’t just happen once a year, it’s something we can do every day.
Our people are our greatest asset. Taking a moment to connect, share a smile, and ask “R U OK?” can make all the difference. Together, we build a culture of care, support, and connection. 💬✨
