Making Inclusion & Diversity a Reality

Positioning Inclusion & Diversity at the heart of our process

We are proud to position Inclusion & Diversity at the heart of everything we do which enables us to provide a genuinely fully inclusive recruitment process and make inclusion and diversity (I&D) a reality.

Embedding inclusivity into the shortlisting process takes time but the rewards are clear to see. 62% of job seekers are more likely to apply for a job where a company is openly committed to improving diversity and inclusion in their workforce.

By partnering with us, you will benefit from our extensive experience of studying and modelling the optimal inclusive recruitment process.

How

There is no one size fits all solution to achieving genuine I&D. We adopt an innovative approach tailored to your I&D challenge whether you’re a small manufacturing firm or multi-national corporation.

From briefing and mapping to engagement strategies and onboarding advice – we assess each of your processes thoroughly and through our proprietary modelling and expert consultants, deliver a solution that fits the dynamics of your organisation, its culture and people.

We achieve this by:
  • Advising you on your internal processes and onboarding initiatives to assess how effective they are to I&D and how they can be improved.
  • Utilising our cross-sector networks to provide shortlists that include out-of-sector candidates. This can provide a solution to specific diversity challenges, as well as encouraging a broader diversity approach.
  • Running our annual Emerging Leaders Programme (ELP) which hones in on diversity and seeking opinions, ideas and support of individuals outside of your sector.

Our recent research:

Leadership – Post-COVID: The role of the D&I Strategy

In our trailer for our ‘Leadership – Post-COVID‘ whitepaper, we look at the key role of the I&D strategy as we move on from the COVID-19 crisis. Organisations need to continue to assess future working patterns, office landscapes, and employee engagement strategies to ensure that inclusive cultures are developed and maintained.
