Programme One is a promise and a commitment to be a part of bringing workplace equality for Black talent within our industry.
Whilst eliminating systemic racism across all minority ethnic groups is a long-term ambition, it is often people with Black heritage who are found most disadvantaged.
In November 2020, we came together with 7 other recruitment companies to discuss the significant underrepresentation of Black talent in the recruitment sector. Nine months later we joined forces and created Programme One to redefine equal opportunity.
