Our business case for diversity and inclusion
We are committed to creating a diverse workforce and an inclusive culture where everyone can be themselves and reach their full potential, not only because this is the right thing to do, but because it makes us a better business.
Governance Model
Collaborating to promote diversity and inclusion
As a company that looks to achieve meaningful, sustainable changes – not quick fixes, we recognise that change must be led from the top. Our Group Chief Executive, Leo Quinn, is our Board-level sponsor for Diversity and Inclusion, ensuring momentum and a true cultural shift throughout our organisation.
We work with a number of organisations to support and encourage a diverse workforce. Each of our four Affinity Networks are supported by external partners to help them achieve their goals and values.
Our diversity & inclusion goals
To create a diverse workplace and a culture of inclusion and respect, we will focus on the following:
Leadership
Support our leaders to embed diversity and inclusion across Balfour Beatty, and collaborate across sector
Communication
Celebrate the differences and in turn raise awareness of diversity and inclusion, internally and externally
Culture
Create an inclusive environment where all employees feel they belong, can be themselves at work and perform at their best
Creating opportunities
Recruit and retain the best available talent, representative of the communities in which they operate, to enable us to create high performing, innovative teams and meet future skills demand
Community and supply chain
Collaborate with our customers, suppliers, partners and communities to achieve diversity and inclusion goals together
