Diversity & Inclusion

We’ve worked hard to create an organisation where everyone belongs, no matter who you are, where you come from or how you think. We know as well as anyone that a diverse team offers unique and insightful perspectives that fundamentally improve overall performance.

We have a range of employee networks dedicated to supporting and championing our fantastic people. To help with this, we’ve recently partnered with Vercida, a company that aims to help employers promote a positive and diverse working environment. It’s no secret that we have underrepresented groups within DNE but by promoting opportunities through Vercida, it’s our aim to reduce the imbalance.

Listen to a collection of talented individuals from a range of diverse backgrounds talk about their experiences in the DNE.
