Moon Executive Search is one of the First 50 signatories of Change the Race Ratio, a campaign to increase racial and ethnic participation in British businesses.

We believe in creating an inclusive culture in which talent from all diversities can thrive: focusing on recruitment and talent development processes to drive a more diverse pipeline.

The latest Parker Review report into ethnic diversity in UK Boards shows little progress has been made by businesses on implementing its recommendations: 37% of FTSE 100 and 69% of FTSE 250 companies surveyed still do not have any ethnic minority representation on their board.

There is a growing body of evidence that suggests that Diversity and Inclusion are an imperative for businesses.

• The 2017 McGregor-Smith Review found that the lack of ethnic diversity in business is costing the UK £24 billion a year in lost GDP.

• Deloitte research suggests when employees feel included in the workplace their ability to innovate increases by 83%.

Across the UK, the CBI speaks on behalf of 190,000 businesses of all sizes and sectors. As the CBI President Lord Bilimoria CBE, DL, stated:

“Board representation, diverse senior leadership, transparency in disclosing pay gaps and building an inclusive culture. They are practical and entirely achievable. They could make your business more innovative, more profitable, more attractive to talent. And help make society fairer for everyone.”
