We also know that diversity of thought is a product of diverse talent, which manifests itself in many ways. Gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, neurodiversity and socio-economic background are all areas that we spend time thinking about and we encourage applications from typically under-represented groups. We have a 50/50 gender split across the company and 33% of our amazing colleagues are people of colour - whilst these only represent two dimensions of diversity, we are consistently looking for new ways to find, attract and retain incredible colleagues.
