You don’t always need to make big gestures to make meaningful changes
Squirrel choose selective causes and charities to support throughout the year such as Shoebox Christmas and Jammies for June. We listen to our people and are happy to get behind causes they are passionate about.
We provide 2 Squirrel Days in addition to annual leave per year for our people to use for their own wellbeing, or that of others.
We also provide life insurance, maternity leave and subsidised parking to help make things that little bit easier for our Squirrels.
We are committed to providing our own people and clients with an inclusive workplace and service. We recognise that we are not perfect. And we are up for as many uncomfortable chats as it takes.
We believe in doing our bit
Whilst we’re not a big carbon producer, we believe in doing our bit to be green. We’ve come up with a set of core actions to reduce our carbon footprint. Our Sale St office is now solar powered and we have taken measures to eliminate as much waste as possible from our day to day operations.
Lots of Squirrels want to make a difference and our team is dedicated to maintaining our stance on this.
We also have a policy of refurbishing and recycling our used Macbooks and phones for staff to provide for their families.
