Our Social Impact We think of our social impact holistically, encompassing how we affect our clients, our candidates, our colleagues, our suppliers, our wider community, and the recruitment industry at large. We see our key social impacts as: • the quality of the appointments we help our clients to make and the impact those individuals subsequently have in-post; • the integrity with which we help candidates to define and to attain their career objectives; • the way in which we look after, and develop our colleagues; • the extent to which our business consumes resources, and the size of our carbon footprint; • the impact and longevity of our work in the community; • the leadership we show within the wider recruitment industry on issues of responsibility, ethics, sustainability, diversity, equity, and inclusion. We’ve sought to make tangible improvements in each of these areas over the past year, which the remainder of this report hopefully illustrates. As ever though, we believe that the most significant way in which we contribute positively towards society is through the appointments we help our clients to make. The impact that those individuals have in-post has undoubtedly been our single most crucial driver since the company’s conception. Increasingly we are choosing to look at the appointments we handle through the lens of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Set in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly, and intended to be achieved by the year 2030, the SDGs are comprised of 17 global goals designed to be a "blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all". Here’s how our work related to those goals during 2019: 1 NO POVERTY 3 GOOD HEALTH & Rashmi Pillai appointed as Executive Director of Financial Sector Deepening Uganda Aread more WELL-BEING Avril Benoît appointed as US Executive Director of Medecins Sans Frontieres Aread more
