Culture and Diversity

Our commitment to the Soane team is to offer a positive culture which is characterised by communication, mutual collaboration and active participation. We offer safe, welcoming and progressive opportunities for all, regardless of religion, beliefs, age, gender, race, disability or sexual orientation. We are committed to nurturing a fulfilled, diverse workforce who love what they do.

We are determined to secure the future of traditional crafts and our commitment to British manufacturing starts with our craftspeople. We are proud to have initiated thriving apprenticeship schemes and trainee programmes to foster skills passed down over generations. As an accredited Living Wage Employer, we are committed to paying fair wages to every single one of our makers. This includes trainee apprentices from the moment they start to ensure we secure the future of craft in Britain.

Our wider team supports our workshops and our Work from Home policy offers flexibility and encourages a good work/life balance.

We continue to increase diversity within our workforce, and our sustainability taskforce has been exploring ways to widen the pool of talent for new hires.
