Diversity and inclusion
We value diversity, providing equality of opportunity and recruiting & promoting on merit.
Our aim is to create a workforce that’s representative of our region and customer base. It’s really important to us that we’re able to create an inclusive and supportive working environment where all our employees feel valued and free to contribute to their full potential.
