It emphasises collaboration and communication and is defined by being team-oriented, non-hierarchical and performance-led. The genesis of this culture lies in the historic merging of the different country teams in the mid-1990s to create Permira as it is today. That process required the pooling of decision-making and economics to create a truly pan-regional organisation that prizes shared over local interests. This collaborative approach allows the firm to build highly effective investment teams from across different offices, sectors and functions. Specialists are relocated to work on a fully integrated basis with local professionals to provide an advantage in competitive situations. The culture also enables Permira to attract and retain the best talent and to share knowledge effectively across the organisation. Permira’s remuneration system rewards the individual’s overall contribution to the firm and the funds’ success as a whole, rather than the performance of single transactions or geographies. This approach enables resources to be deployed where they are most effective regardless of geography and closely aligns the interests of professionals with investors.
