Why Recruitment Is A Great Career For Women
Is recruitment really male-dominated or can it be a great career option for women?
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. Diversity and Inclusion is an ongoing journey and we’re in it for the long haul. 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.
ASCEND is designed to attract, retain and progress more women across the Amoria Bond Group regardless of seniority, tenure or role. ASCEND welcomes all employees who identify as female to regular virtual meetings, small group and 121 mentoring, and also hosts external experts and guest speakers.
Our Inclusion Advocates are passionate colleagues from across the Amoria Bond Group committed to ensuring we provide a truly inclusive working environment for all employees, regardless of our backgrounds or differences. The team help shape our D&I strategy and Inclusion Calendar of local and companywide events.
We are a founding member of Programme One, a collaborative initiative that aims to remove barriers to black talent in our industry and help attract, retain and progress more black recruiters. The programme commits us to four key action-orientated objectives including employee mentoring and companywide training.
Our local office Culture Committees enable employees to shape and influence their local office culture and working environment, organise inclusive social and team-sports events, CSR initiatives and much more.
We offer a range of resources designed to support employees in our Wellbeing Hub, plus coaching and initiatives to support mindfulness mastery, resilience and encourage a healthy, balanced lifestyle.
We offer employees the opportunity to swap two religious national holidays for days that have significant meaning to their own personal faith or religion.
Family@AmoriaBond aims to ensure working parents and carers feel welcome and included - from family Fun Days and BBQs, to our popular Family@Amoria competitions and inclusive, family-friendly initiatives.
Hosted by colleagues across the business, Lean In circles are a great way for female employees across our offices to meet up, discuss their goals and challenges, support each other and share best practice.
Currently led by our Manchester D&I Committee, Let's Talk offers employees a safe environment to discuss topics and issues that matter to them - these have included Black Lives Matter, disability in work, race and gender.
In July 2020, we became a Founding Partner signatory of the Diversity and Inclusion Charter - making a public pledge to driving positive, sustainable change through specific, committed actions. In 2021 we also signed the German Charta Der Vielfalt – a natural step as a global business determined to provide a diverse and truly inclusive workplace where all our employees have the same equity of opportunity.
At Amoria Bond we are committed to providing a truly diverse and inclusive workplace for all employees, and championing diversity and inclusion within the recruitment industry and the wider STEM industries we operate in. Led by our ESG Director, Natasha Crump, we have a clear Group-wide D&I strategy and supporting delivery governance programme within our business. Widely recognised as industry leaders in championing and accelerating diversity and inclusion, we are committed to sharing best practise and helping our clients to achieve their E,D&I goals.
