Gearing up for the future
As part of our strategy, Kumba has identified several key opportunities that will have a positive impact on our business going into the future. The work environment has changed significantly over the last two decades, opening up more opportunities for collaboration.
Our strategy, which seeks to unlock value through various multidimensional opportunities requires us to create an environment that is future-focused, centralised and integrated.
For Kumba to come out on top in this ever-changing world, it is critical for us to have a future-enabled workforce.

Putting you in the know
To capture the essence of our move to 144 Oxford, we created an interactive communications campaign called ‘Move_me’.
Move_me is all about progress and development, it’s about action through collaboration and innovation through integration. The move to 144 Oxford will enable flexible new ways of working and new ways of engaging.
Move is a dynamic active word that means to go in a specific direction, to progress, put in motion, motivate and influence.
_me personalises the move to each and every one of us.
Combined, it evokes feelings and inspires action.
As you embark on this journey, leaving a familiar place to move somewhere new, Move_me invokes action, captures the emotion and drives connectivity.
Together with the interior design and architecture, the new offices are destined to inspire and motivate you, giving you a place and space to meet, collaborate and co-create. A place you want to go to, a place that moves you to advance and develop.
The design follows principles of simplicity, mobility, originality and synchronicity, paring things down to the most elegant essence, moving and evolving, transforming and shifting.
The launch of our Move_me communications campaign is designed to keep you in the loop with every move we make.
Not only will it communicate the latest news on the move, research undertaken, as well as messages from our leaders, fun facts, health and safety updates and more.
It’s also designed to get you involved, interacting and contributing to conversations around the move. We’ll be running competitions and a variety of engagements that you can participate in. This is a quantum leap we are taking to future-proofing our business and creating a sustainable future for all of us.
