We believe in the transformative power of engaging different perspectives and working with people from different backgrounds, cultures, and approaches to enhance our working environment and drive business performance. Understanding and respecting our differences, allows us all to do our best work.

Being an inclusive employer makes us a better business. It enables everyone who works here to fully contribute, this means we can attract more diverse talent (broadening our talent pool) and it helps us to be competitive in the marketplace. 

Our ambitions are bold as we drive to have a minimum 30% women in the business by 2030. To accelerate progress we have looked at our strategic approach to inclusion and diversity and are taking a number of actions including: rolling out new policies and ways of working, refreshed recruitment processes, improved leadership development, enhanced mentoring programmes and career returners schemes along with training.

We have also launched our Gender Balance Action Plan (GAP). This acts as the blueprint for Inclusion and Diversity, informed by data and insight, and is supported by our Senior Inclusion and Diversity Executive Committee Sponsor.

Our work to improve our gender representation has seen us reduce our gender pay gap each year since we started reporting in 2017. This year we are pleased to report that our median pay gap has come down once again, from 9.6% to 6.7%.

This figure stands well below the UK national average of 13.1%, reflecting our ongoing efforts towards gender parity.

While progress continues, we acknowledge there is more work to do. Our focus remains on improving gender representation, creating pathways for career progression, and building an equitable workplace for all.

We’re a company committed to inclusion and diversity, which is why we sponsor so many valuable employee networks in our UK business.
