Delivering Social Value
Communities are at the heart of our corporate values and everything we do.
We put people first
At Stantec, we invite, embrace, and celebrate differences. That means all of us—together—shape a culture of mutual support and acceptance. We are proud to be recognised as one of the World’s best workplaces.
We are better together
By tapping into our 26,000 employees, we are developing innovative approaches to solve some of the world’s biggest problems. We are also committed on a global scale to give back to the communities where we live and work.
Communities are at the heart of everything we do
By delivering societal and environmental benefits, our ambition is to shape places that are fit for the future. Our designs and work contribute to equality in society, delivering social value by building better places and communities - improving the lives of those who live, work and play in them. Stantec works to enhance quality of life, resilience, liveability and safety.
Our UK Climate Change and Social Value Forum drives environmental and social action across the business, and tracks progress against our pledges.
We are committed to delivering benefits to our staff, and to wider communities through our programmes including our learning and development, work experience and apprenticeships, Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (ED&I), Stantec in the Community, school’s engagement and STEM initiatives.
Better Places, Better Quality of Life
There is a huge opportunity to deliver much more value and benefit to the wellbeing of communities through the way we design and deliver new development.
Places First
As our industry looks to accelerate delivery of housing and employment, Stantec is asking how can we deliver it in a way that does support the creation of healthy and sociable, prosperous, sustainable communities?
Health & Inclusive Design
With our expertise and focus engrained in sustainability, we ensure our spaces bring health, equality, and social value improvements across demographics, socioeconomics, and protected characteristics within society.
Community Engagement
In the UK, we work with our communities through our community, education and STEM engagement initiatives. Led by amazing volunteers around the business, we are involved in a wide range of activities that make a difference in places where we live and work.
Through our projects, we are working to:
- Secure funding to deliver transformational development and regeneration plans
- Design and build high quality buildings which improve health and human experience
- Deliver infrastructure improvements for communities
- Level up opportunities across the UK, supporting jobs, businesses and economic growth
- Undertake meaningful and innovative engagement with communities to shape proposals and ensure local priorities are delivered

- Deliver green infrastructure to enable healthy lifestyles and provide access to nature
- Enhance the physical and social integration of new and existing communities through provision of community assets
- Ensure proposals promote equality, challenge discrimination and are genuinely accessible to all
- All disciplines, business operating units, and geographies within Stantec play a key role in delivering positive outcomes and social value for communities
