Equity, Diversity & InclusionHelping people fullfil their potential

1. Our Commitment

At Vivo Talent - EDI is central to our success. We work to create environments where every individual feels valued, respected and empowered to thrive. Our commitment extends to candidates, colleagues and clients - ensuring that inclusion underpins every interaction and decision.

Our approach is guided by robust governance frameworks, including:

  • A comprehensive Equal Opportunities Policy safeguarding all protected characteristics
  • Unconscious Bias Guidelines and mandatory training across hiring processes

2. Inclusive Recruitment

We design recruitment processes that remove bias, broaden access and create equitable opportunities.

What this looks like in practice:

  • Inclusive Candidate Journey with optional diversity disclosure in a safe and supportive environment
  • Talent Magnet Video Job Adverts that highlight real people, real teams and real stories, ensuring candidates see themselves reflected
  • DE&I Analytics Dashboard tracking representation, progress and outcomes at every recruitment stage

3. Expanding Representation

We collaborate with specialist networks and community partners to reach underrepresented talent.

Our teams have engaged with organisations including WIBF, WISE, BBSTEM, Stemettes, Working Mums and others to support diversity across sectors.

This ensures we continually widen access, build stronger pipelines and improve representation across industries.

4. Accountability & Continuous Improvement

EDI is not a one‑time exercise - it is a discipline.

We continuously:

Monitor performance and outcomes across recruitment

Identify barriers and act on insights

Review and enhance our processes

Listen to candidate and client feedback to evolve our approach

5. Supporting Organisations to Grow Their EDI Capability

Beyond our internal work, we help organisations build their own strategic EDI foundations.

Through accredited programmes, including CMI Level 7 in Strategic EDI, we enable leaders to:

  • Reduce bias through structured and objective hiring
  • Align EDI strategy with business priorities
  • Build operational capability with tools, frameworks and best practice

6. Our Vision

“A workplace and wider society, where

opportunities are equitable, diversity is

celebrated and inclusion is a lived

experience for everyone.”
