At Found, we understand that you do your best work when you can be your best self. Creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork thrive in an environment rich in diverse ideas, perspectives, and experiences. That’s why we’re laser-focused on nurturing diversity and fostering a culture where inclusivity isn’t a buzzword; it’s our reality. This commitment is fundamental to our mission: to make digital marketing more engaging, connected, and accountable.
A workplace should reflect the vibrancy of the world we live in; one that is full of diverse voices, frames of reference, and lived experiences. At Found, we don’t just aim to create, we actively cultivate a thriving environment for all.
By championing advocacy, trust and equal opportunities, we foster a culture where every member of our team feels valued, empowered, and supported in their professional journey.
Our commitment is visible in everything we do – from our platforms and policies to our strategies and communications. Keen to join us? Know that we assess every application without regard to ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, family or parental status, nationality, neurodiversity or disability status.
We’re dedicated to unlocking everyone’s full potential. Our goal? A thriving environment where all can excel. And we practice what we preach – from annual salary and promotion benchmarking across gender and ethnicity to clear progression pathways, we ensure equal opportunities for all.
This commitment starts at the top with our Managing Director and is echoed by our Allyship Committee. We’re not just observing change; we’re leading it. As proud members of All In and the BIMA Diversity and Inclusion Committee, we’re committed to driving systemic change in our industry.
Our championing of diversity and inclusion goes beyond those who have already embarked on digital marketing as a career. Real change starts at the grassroots and that’s why our partnership with The Hebe Foundation and the Digital Disruptors programme is essential.
We’re reaching out to a diverse group of young people, aged 14-18, offering them not just workshops and mentorship but also work experience and an authentic glimpse into the exciting world of digital marketing. It’s about taking action now and paving the way to inspire a future generation of digital pioneers.
Every year, we send out a DE&I survey and complete a full salary and promotional benchmarking assessment, laying the groundwork for real, transparent changes that make our workplace even fairer and more inclusive. Highlights from our 2023 DNA Report include:
A POWERHOUSE OF 90 PROFESSIONALS
57% FEMALE, 43% MALE
28% FROM ETHNIC MINORITY GROUPS
Overall, women have a slight edge with a 1.09% higher pay gap.
80% of our middle management is male, while 67% of our senior leadership is female.
In middle management, women earn slightly more but, at the executive level, men earn slightly more.
This data isn’t just numbers for us; it’s a roadmap to ensure we keep improving and stay true to our commitment to diversity and fairness.
