Equity, Diversity and Inclusion at Amoria Bond

At the heart of our purpose is a belief that everyone deserves respect and equal opportunity to fulfil their potential and progress their lives - regardless of our backgrounds and differences. Equity, Diversity and Inclusion is an ongoing journey and we’re in it for the long haul, and we are proud that our award-winning E,D&I strategy has been recognised both within our industry and beyond. We don’t pretend to be perfect, but we are 100% committed and hold ourselves fully accountable to delivering sustainable, meaningful action-led change internally, within the recruitment industry we love, and across the STEM sectors we serve.

LGBTQI+ Pride

At Amoria Bond, we extend our Pride Month celebrations from June until Manchester Pride weekend in August, with a series of fun and educational activities led by our Diversity & Inclusion committee.

We believe it's important to celebrate Pride month in a way that encourages education and acknowledges the challenges, past and present, faced by the LGBTQI+ community. 

For Pride 2022 we held a number of initiatives with this goal in mind, including writing about the dangers of rainbow-washing and why it's important to celebrate Pride, holding our own Pride-themed Pub Quiz night, streaming our live DJ sets and decorating our offices with important LGBTQI+ community facts. 

You can see our flyers and facts to learn a few things for yourself in the link below.
