Diversity and Inclusion

Our commitment

At Mainstream we are committed to building on the positive culture already in place  by integrating diversity, equity and inclusion across all aspects of our organisation.

We are on a journey to creating an even more inclusive and fair organisation where everyone belongs and where we can all be our true selves. Our aim is to have diversity without exclusion, where we understand and value our differences. We are committed to creating an environment where we feel safe to speak up and bringing the same passion to our DE&I journey as we bring to the transition to renewable energy.

We pride ourselves on being a company where we are developing our next leaders alongside a new, renewable energy powered future.

Our bespoke You First platform enables our colleagues to plan their training and career progression.

And our active commitment to breaking bias – creating a truly diverse and inclusive workplace that reflects the world we live in – means there is equal opportunity to seize any of our many new opportunities for promotion and relocation.

See how our culture has been creating very positive first impressions in this short video…

We strive towards a diverse and inclusive workplace where our teams are fully engaged in our vision to electrify the world with renewable energy, and where every employee feels they belong.

She says: “It’s about bringing in a range and variety of voices that can enrich what we are trying to deliver.”
