DIVERSITY STATEMENT

 

Our commitment to Diversity, Inclusivity and Belonging

At Maru, we are committed to diversity, inclusivity and belonging.

Our ambition is that our culture celebrates diversity for everyone, regardless of the colour of their skin, or who they are, or who they choose to be. We value all thinking, opinions and ideas and seek to encourage everyone to be comfortable bringing their authentic whole selves to our working environment.

We are inclusive. We believe diversity of experience, outlook and culture drives innovation. We celebrate the intellectual generosity of multiple approaches and points of view. And we’re building a culture where difference is valued.

This is core to how we build our teams, cultivate our leaders and create a thriving company that’s the right fit for every person and partner.

We are on a journey. We know that we can always be better and so we have an active plan to ensure that we keep striving to make good choices and make our own positive contribution for the world around us. Our plan is built on core beliefs so we can improve in everything that we do.
