Arup’s shared values, like our firm’s name, are derived from the beliefs and convictions of our founder, the engineer and philosopher Sir Ove Arup. He believed that work was only valuable when it had something higher to strive for. We continue to embody that idea – that our work is truly profitable when it shapes a better world.
We have a healthy mix of people with very different perspectives and from many cultures, working together, learning from each other, and generously sharing knowledge and ideas. Our people are the creative force behind many of the world’s most innovative and sustainable designs.
Talented people, like you, join Arup for the opportunities that we provide to work on the world’s most exciting projects, to develop a specialism of your own and to find your niche. The chance to work with some of the world’s leading experts, the range of professional opportunities, and the
support and freedom for innovation means that we remain attractive for the world’s most skilled engineers, designers, advisors, and experts.
At Arup we are committed to recruiting, retaining and progressing our diverse talent, this includes continuing to work towards of our aspirational gender goal of 40:60, where we are committed to employing 40% women, 40% men, and 20% of any gender, at all levels of the organisation. We also have a 50/50 gender split aspiration goal at graduate level, where we are consistently hiring between 44-50% year-on-year.
We collect, monitor and analyse data on applicants and regularly report and review on how women are recruited and progress through our processes, identifying and addressing any barriers to ensure our attraction and recruitment processes are fair and equitable, at all stages.
We regularly undertake employee consultation with our female talent to understand their development needs, which has since been used to design and develop our programme of positive action to enhance fair and equal progression. This includes our Women in Leadership Programme for those at mid-career grades to help develop our visible pipeline of women for leadership roles.
We track the diversity of our promotion pools and actively require our leaders to ensure women are represented. We regularly review our approach to promotions to create greater transparency and fairness, including introducing a Promotions Review Panel to ensure that promotion recommendations represent a diverse range of our colleagues with the right skills and potential to succeed.
