Our People

We actively engage employees through regular virtual and in-person meetings led by Divisional CEOs, with senior leadership also participating. In 2024, Non-Executive Director Caroline Thomson held an engagement session with our Creative Solutions Division. Employees are also kept informed via newsletters, email updates, and Town Hall meetings throughout the year.

We offer the Sharesave Scheme to all our employees in the UK, US, Italy, Germany, Costa Rica, Singapore, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and Israel. Sharesave allows employees to save a fixed monthly amount (currently up to £250) to purchase shares in the Company at a discount of up to 20% on the share price at the time of an offer.

Our Sharesave Scheme is extremely popular, with over 70% of Group employees participating in the scheme, demonstrating the close alignment between our employees and shareholders. We have specifically enhanced communication across the Group, to ensure it is well understood, and encourage as many employees as possible to participate in the scheme. Face-to-face presentations are held at sites and communications are translated into local languages. We plan to expand training to online resources for all employees to explain the process further and how to get involved.

The wellbeing of our employees is an important area of focus. Initiatives focusing on healthcare, the working environment, employee benefits and training are in place.

Our commitment to investing in our employees’ growth remains despite the market challenges in 2024. Videndum provides career development opportunities aligned with individual and organisational needs, integrating them with performance reviews to support growth.

Our Diversity and Inclusion (“D&I”) Strategy is built on clear, actionable goals to create meaningful change. Our policy is displayed on our website, demonstrating our commitment. Our Code of Conduct reinforces our strategy, prohibiting any form of discrimination.

Our Code of Conduct sets out an express prohibition on discrimination of any kind.
