At Hillarys, we firmly believe in recognising and celebrating the unique qualities of each of our colleagues. We understand that there is no 'one size fits all' approach, and with this in mind, we are dedicated to providing an inclusive workplace where every colleague feels valued and comfortable to be their true self.

Our commitment to inclusivity involves actively listening to feedback from our colleagues through the collaboration with our EDI (Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion) Ambassadors. By doing so, we can personalise our approach, making it more relevant and personable to each individual working with us. This way, we aim to create an environment where everyone can come to work and feel appreciated for who they are.

A number of our colleagues have pledged to support the EDI cause and continue to drive change in the business, a few examples below;

“To me, EDI means creating an environment where all colleagues feel able to be their true selves. In an environment that celebrates uniqueness, belonging and creativity thrive and we can all enjoy the benefits. I will continue to create opportunities for colleagues to share their voice and drive our EDI journey forwards.”

Sarah Shepherd, People team

“I pledge to continue broadening our outreach through our recruitment activity, to seek opportunities that expand our talent pool and continue to tackle unconscious bias in order to attract, retain and work towards a truly inclusive and diverse workforce.”

Lauren Taylor, People Team

Alongside our team commitment we also have a group of EDI Ambassadors who support and promote EDI across the business and help build trust and give everyone a voice to drive change.
