OUR COMMITMENTS TO

DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION

  • Our leaders are passionate and vocal about DE&I.  They are open and transparent about our goals and what we’re doing to continually improve.
  • We give everyone a voice and the chance to drive change. We look for individuals who align naturally and genuinely demonstrate what we stand for and are capable to deliver and excel.
  • We assess based on capability and our values, nothing else. Our recruitment process is specifically designed to provide fair assessment both for new opportunities and for promotions. We run a three-stage training programme, ‘Right Fit Recruitment’ alongside providing interview templates linked to our values. Having multiple interviewers in each process ensures every candidate, internal or external, is assessed fairly and consistently based on their capability and how closely they are aligned to our values.
