Diversity & Inclusion is, without doubt, the most important item on the agenda for our clients as they all respond in their own way to the dramatic social progress made in the past year.
Clients are held accountable to the heightened standards of the moment and those that will continue to be applied in the future. In turn, they expect us to live and breathe this as a key recruitment partner. Since 2019 we have made a more concerted effort to review our own recruitment practices to understand how we can help drive a more inclusive hiring process, and transparency is key in this.
