adheres well to company culture

As I understand it in this context, the description requires that the applicant be someone who ensures company culture is followed.

an advocate of company culture

another example of a poor, poor source text. my best guess is that the person they're looking for has to be able to fit into and defend the company culture/habits/way of working.

neutral writeaway : advocate means he's in favour of it. ie selling the concept to others./I do answer at times. bewaker=voorstander?
