As a responsible business, and guided by our values, we are committed to inclusively and sustainably supporting our people, our clients, our communities, and the environment.
We take our responsibility to manage the impact we have on the world in which we operate, seriously. That's why responsible business is a core part of our business strategy. It's essential in helping us achieve our vision to be a progressive, independent and profitable business, providing straightforward advice for ambitious clients.
Our Responsible Business strategy is informed by a materiality assessment with input from both internal and external stakeholders. This has helped us to pinpoint the areas most important to us and where we feel we can make the most difference.
To ensure we're meeting the highest standards, our strategy is also designed to be consistent with the principles of internationally recognised guidance from the UN Global Compact and UN Sustainable Development Goals.
We support equality of opportunity and access to justice by sharing our time and skills through volunteering, fundraising and pro bono services.
People
We nurture an inclusive, values-driven culture where everyone can be themselves, with their development and wellbeing at the centre.
Environment
We reduce our environmental impact, and promote environmental awareness and responsibility among our people.
