Our vision is to build an inclusive and fair workplace where all colleagues, regardless of background, identity or geography, can thrive. We are committed to ensuring fair access to opportunity, fostering a culture of mutual respect and creating an environment where everyone feels they belong.

By valuing different perspectives and experiences, we strengthen collaboration, drive innovation and deliver better outcomes for our people, clients and communities.

Chloe Muir

Director of Talent & DEI

Inclusion is built through the everyday experiences of our people. We are creating an environment where colleagues feel valued, supported and able to fulfil their potential. We know that when people feel they belong, they are more likely to thrive.

How we are creating an inclusive culture

Leadership accountability: embedding inclusion into leadership expectations, governance and decision-making.

Attracting top talent: recruiting the best and most diverse talent, helping us build high-performing teams that reflect the communities and markets in which we operate.

Opportunity and retention: creating pathways for growth and development, ensuring all colleagues have fair access to opportunities and support throughout their careers.

Culture and belonging: fostering an inclusive environment where everyone feels valued, respected and able to be themselves.

Client and sector collaboration: working with clients, industry partners and communities to advance diversity, equality and inclusion (DEI) and drive positive change beyond our organisation.

 

Our inclusion networks and community groups

One of the ways we create a culture of belonging is through our seven inclusion networks, which are volunteer-run. They give our people the chance to connect, learn, share experiences and influence positive change across the firm. They also help inform our strategy by bringing insights from colleagues' lived experiences and ensuring different voices are heard in decision-making.

Our networks are:

  • LGBT+ & Allies
  • Faith, Race, Ethnicity & Equality (FREE)
  • Female Futures
  • Social Mobility Champions
  • Equip (Disability, Neurodiversity and long-term health conditions)
  • Family Matters
  • Armed Forces
 
Data, transparency and accountability
We believe that meaningful progress requires clear accountability and an evidence-based approach.
We use data and insight to inform decision-making, meaning we can take more targeted action and ensure our efforts are focused where they will have the greatest impact.
As part of our commitment to transparency, we publish a range of inclusion data and reporting. This includes our Diversity Data, which provides insight into the diversity of our UK legal workforce, and our Pay Gap Data, which includes gender, ethnicity, LBG, disability and social mobility.
