A unique culture

Our culture is more than a mission statement or set of values. It’s everything we put into everything we do. It’s our commitment to diversity and inclusion; how we help our employees learn and grow; and how we partner with and support the communities where we live and work. It’s all this, and so much more.

Diversity & Inclusion

We work hard to create a work environment where everyone has the chance to voice their opinions because we know that having different perspectives makes us stronger. There’s a lot to see, hear, and learn about how we do this, and our Pride celebration is a great place to start.

Our ERG’s celebrating diversity

We understand that strength lies in difference. Our Employee Resource Groups (ERG) support each, and our organisation, to become stronger. They help build awareness and understanding of inclusion and diversity so that everyone can be their true self and reach their full potential.

Each ERG is ran by a committee of colleagues who volunteer from across the company. They develop programmes of activity, which further our DEI goals and provide lots of opportunities for all of us to engage on different topics.
