For our people, planet and communities
We are a responsible and future-focused business, because being here for the long-term should never be taken for granted.
Our purpose is to protect, prepare and progress our clients for what comes next and it’s essential that we do the same for our people, our planet and our communities too. We're continually driving sustainable change in every part of our operations; working with our clients and wider networks to deliver positive environmental and social outcomes, thinking long term, acting responsibly and supporting our people in their work, development and wellbeing.
OUR RESPONSIBILITY
Our people trust us to deliver a workplace that is open and inclusive, where everyone is supported in their work, development and wellbeing.
We value fairness and respect, and we believe that varied perspectives bring creativity, and creativity solves problems. We know it’s our differences that help us to deliver innovative solutions for our clients.
Recent initiatives and achievements include:
- We've been named a Times Top 50 Employer for Gender Equality two years in a row
- Setting a new target to see 50% female representation at partner level by 2029, having achieved our original target of 33% female representation two years early. This demonstrates our continued commitment in getting female leaders to the top of the firm.
- Launching the sixth of our colleague led networks, Neurodiversity, to continue to create community, foster inclusivity and offer support for colleagues, people managers and TLT as a firm. This network joins our Disability, Ethnic Diversity, LGBT+, Social Mobility and Women’s Equality networks.
- Increasing the number of colleagues who are fully trained Mental Health and Wellbeing Champions for non-judgemental mental health conversations and signposting.
- Sharing our public target to increase ethnic representation in our early careers roles from 1 in 5 to 1 in 3
- Introducing a free assessment and diagnostic service for women in the early stages of menopause, to complement and build on our menopause app-based provision and line manager support.
- This year, 85% of our colleagues disclosed their Equity, Diversity and Inclusion data.

RECENT NEWS
We're minimising our adverse environmental impact, maximising our positive impact and reducing our greenhouse gas emissions to net-zero - by setting hard targets, promoting sustainable choices and collaborating with like-minded businesses to tackle environmental issues.
Our goal is to reach net-zero by 2040 with science-based targets that are ambitious, achievable, and industry-leading.
Approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) our near- and long-term GHG emissions reduction targets go beyond the (SBTi) recommendation that businesses halve their emissions before 2030 and achieve net-zero before 2050.
With an 88% reduction in our Scope 1 & 2 (market-based) emissions since 2019 - hitting our target six years early.
To ensure we can accurately record, manage and act on our GHG emissions data, we have invested in a new platform and now incorporate sustainability screening for suppliers. We actively encourage employee engagement, sharing knowledge and driving change, so that our people can have positive environmental impacts within and beyond the workplace.
- We have employee-led sustainability forums in every region, with 74 active members
- Our Glasgow office is in Cadworks, Scotland's first net-zero office, while our Manchester office has moved into Eden, Manchester's most sustainable building
- We're partnered with a growing list of like-minded organisations, including Belmont Estate and Forest Green Rovers
- We support the Ministry of Eco Education, who help 5,500 schools embed sustainability across curriculums
- We've achieved the international standard ISO 14001:2015, that sets criteria for an effective environment management system
- 100% renewable electricity is used across our offices
- We support The Chancery Lane Project, a charity that helps organisations reduce emissions using the power of legal documents and processes
