WE'RE NOT ALL THE SAME AND THAT'S OUR GREATEST STRENGTH.

Join us in UK & Europe and you join over 9,000 people from a multitude of different cultures and backgrounds. Our goal is to make sure that every single person feels included, valued and has an equal voice. We aim to provide a supportive environment and be sensitive to individual needs and ambitions.

We’re creating a better future, and you can help make it happen.

REMOVING BARRIERS SO WE CAN ALL THRIVE

Change can only be driven by the right leaders – trusted, inclusive people who make us feel safe and valued.

This means removing barriers to progression and opportunity wherever we find them. It means further diversifying our hiring to include all under-represented groups and increasing representation of these groups at all levels throughout the UK&E, especially in leadership. We set targets for female and ethnic minority representation to keep us on track.

Of course, it doesn’t stop with hiring. No matter who you are, you’ll also be supported with ground-breaking learning opportunities, including signature programmes targeted at under-represented groups. To unleash your full potential, give you an equal chance of success, and enhance your career through more opportunities.

• Recruit from the most diverse talent pool and increase the proportion of female and ethnic minorities within our Early Careers intake
• Set targets for women and ethnic minority staff within our business and continuously review our Different Makes a Difference plan to ensure we achieve them
• Actively promote our Returners Programme to help more women and parents back into careers (we’re also piloting a buddy scheme to offer further support parents with their return to work)
• Help employees and line managers by embedding our Pregnancy Loss toolkit
• Support those who may need a reasonable adjustment to address a challenge at work or during recruitment
• Overcome barriers to career progression for women and ethnic minorities, with actions based on our in-depth Career Deflection Report
• Work with our supply chain to understand where they are on their ED&I journey and support them in becoming aligned with our policy
• Provide inclusive leadership training with our senior leaders
• Keep pushing our signature programs to develop skills and confidence – such as Thrive, aimed to level the playing field for under-represented groups, and Inspire, for developing women in the workplace so that they can achieve greater success

Our journey is ongoing, and progress doesn’t just come from a program or a leader – we all need to be part of the difference. So we encourage everyone to get involved and make their voices heard. This is most evident in our self-generated Staff Networks – representing groups from women to LGBTQ+, military to faith.
