At Buro Happold we want everyone to feel they can thrive and reach their full potential. We do our best to ensure equity and inclusion in our work and practices.
Our beliefs on inclusion and diversity run deep, they are an integral part of who we are as a business. Our collective skill sets, knowledge, experiences, backgrounds and beliefs help us respond to today’s challenges in creating spaces where everyone can thrive. Diverse perspectives drive better solutions and design. Understanding and harnessing this is what makes our work exceptional.
But diversity without inclusion is not enough. Everyone needs to feel valued and so nurturing inclusive working environments which enable employees to feel they belong is our priority. This is why equity is a fundamental principle on which we build our approach to inclusion. Before we can be equal, we must be equitable.
In partnership with trusted organisations and leading institutions, we are continuing to work to reduce barriers into entering the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry.
In addition, we are engaging with mentoring and internship programmes such as 10,000 Black Interns, the ACE Mentor Program, The Intern Project, and the RAE Engineering Leaders Scholarships scheme.
In turn, we are increasing the breadth of our talent pipeline through ensuring opportunities to enter the profession are available to everyone, including marginalised communities.
