DE&I

hero-image

We are a female founded business with a 57:43 (male:female) gender balanced leadership team. These stats are unheard of in both the recruitment and technology sectors, which unfortunately suffer from gender imbalance – something we are striving to change.

We are fiercely proud of our diverse workforce and are passionate about delivering equal opportunities to all, ensuring no discrimination against age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, and sexual orientation.

Delivering informative, interactive training sessions to inform hiring managers about best practice interviewing skills in alignment with industry standards, ensuring that they are equipped with the required knowledge and techniques to make the right hires in the right way with neither any conscious or unconscious bias.

Our job advert tech reveals hidden gender bias in job adverts and job descriptions such as words that are likely to impact the gender balance of applicants, discriminatory words and phrases and clichés or jargon that may only be understood by specific communities of candidates.

We agree with our clients what a successful campaign looks like by breaking down the recruitment process into applications, screened applications, candidates selected for interview and those offered and rejected. We can then measure this against norm data to assess how effective the campaign has been.

If a client would find it beneficial, we can anonymise CVs to remove any unconscious bias across the client business.

We appointed Heather Salway, DE&I Trainer to deliver a DE&I training series to the Fruition team to ensure the team are equipped with the skills and knowledge to support our clients with recruiting and retaining a diverse workforce.

We host regular events, and a common theme throughout these has been DE&I, with our latest panel discussion titled ‘Sourcing & Social: DE&I in Tech - Say vs Do?’. The purpose of these events is to raise awareness of the importance and benefits of DE&I, share knowledge and promote female leaders.
