Belonging at GWR
We are progressive. We are one family. We are inclusive.
Everyone belongs at GWR.
We’re committed to creating an exceptional workplace where authenticity and personal growth thrive.
As we work to reposition rail travel in the hearts and minds of the public, we also aim to bring everyone along on the journey, whoever they are and whatever their experiences. To do that, we must reflect and understand the diverse communities we serve.
Inclusion is for everyone. It’s about respect, community, and amplifying diverse voices. Our goal is a truly inclusive culture where everyone can thrive, develop, and succeed, regardless of who they are or how they identify.
It’s a journey, and we’re in it for the long haul. If you'd like to be part of it, why not join us?
"At GWR we believe that every voice matters, and we prioritise the diverse perspectives that our colleagues bring to the table".
Rachel Geliamassi, Customer Serivces Director
We have six established employee networks that empower our colleagues. Open to all, these networks are engines of change in our business and partners who support in showcasing and uplifting the diverse voices of our people. These networks serve as vibrant communities where individuals can connect at events, share experiences, and work together to foster a more inclusive and equitable environment for all.
