The UK B-Corporation Movement

We have thought hard about the kind of business we want to be. Not just the results we deliver, but how we deliver them. That is why we are starting our journey to become a certified B Corporation (B Corp). This is not about a certificate on the wall; it is about inviting scrutiny and asking to be judged on what we do, not just what we say. Anyone can publish values. What matters is how they show up in everyday decisions, how people are treated, and how we support the wider community.

What is a B Corp?

B Corp is a global movement of companies that balance purpose with profit, meeting high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. Certification looks at the whole business: governance, workers, community, environment, and customers, not a single product or initiative.

There are thousands of certified B Corps across many industries and countries. The certification is rigorous by design because meaningful impact requires more than promises.

Why this matters to us

For clients and candidates: trust. We work in ways that are fair, transparent, and values led.

For partners and our community: commitment. We use our time and resources to create a positive ripple effect.

For us: accountability. We hold ourselves to robust, independent standards and keep improving.

How the standards are evolving

B Lab, the nonprofit behind B Corp, has introduced updated global standards that set clear requirements across defined impact topics. These updates aim to make expectations clearer and impact more measurable, and they will begin phasing in over the coming years.

For context, under the previous model companies certified by achieving at least 80 points on the B Impact Assessment and recertified every three years. The intent has always been continuous improvement rather than a one time pass.

What you can expect from us

We will share our progress openly: what is working, what is not, and what we are changing as a result. Our focus is to make policies practical, consider all stakeholders in key decisions, and support our community in meaningful ways.

This is just the start of our B Corp journey, and we will keep you posted on the progress and the lessons. If we are serious about this, the proof will always be in what we do.
