Our
Purpose
A high-performance team with a strong, shared purpose
Our success is measured on our performance, our brand and our influence
Working together for a better future
We will never solely be focussed on our results and our profits. We recognise that every business has a responsibility to create a positive impact on the environment, the community and the sector in which they operate.
Working with a number of great companies with strong ESG strategies, we have every opportunity to lead the way in our sector for making the deepest impact for the current and future generations (and with our minds sharpened by the 22 children in our collective family)!
We are committed to making a difference and embodying the purpose-led organisation mentality across all areas of our business
Since early 2022, we have been looking at our current practices and have shaped Our Purpose by speaking to our own staff, a large section of our clients and candidate, and from our ongoing research.
Our positive impact is represented by many small changes and setting an example for others to follow
Environment
- Our office is centrally located to all our staff and only used when required, thus reducing carbon emissions
- Strong environmental policies that are always improving
- Recycling in our offices
- We prioritise local suppliers where we can - promoting our local community and reducing transport pollution
