This includes recognising how diverse teams can foster innovation by bringing different perspectives, leading to more creative solutions and improved problem-solving.<\/em><\/p>\n We have never considered quotas or headcounts, but through this organic approach to recruitment, we have arrived at a diverse team that is representative of the areas in which we operate, and of London as a whole. <\/em>It is my firmly held belief that this has been vital to the success of our business.<\/em>“<\/em><\/p>\n
